Tehran, Iran - October 26, 2024

Life in Tehran continued seemingly unaffected by Israel's unprecedented air strikes on Saturday, which targeted military sites in and around the city and killed four soldiers, reported a local resident.

Israel launched pre-dawn airstrikes on missile factories and other sites near Tehran and in western Iran in retaliation for Iran's missile strike on Israel on October 1.

On October 1, Iran fired approximately 180 missiles at Israeli targets. Tehran described the strikes as retaliation for the assassinations of several leaders of regional resistance groups, among other things.

Iran's air defense headquarters claimed the Israeli attacks on Saturday resulted in "limited damage".

Aynur Sena Cabuk, a resident of Tehran, visited one of the city's busiest neighborhoods and observed that daily life remained largely unaffected.

Tensions between Israel and Iran intensified following the eruption of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on Oct. 7, 2023.

"I'm in the most famous and the most crowded, the capital's Enqelab Square, right now. First of all, there is no panic atmosphere in Tehran. In fact, most Iranians say they heard about the attack in the morning. Life is going on normally in the capital at the moment. People are going to work. Students are going to school. Stores are open. People are shopping. As you can see, everything is normal in Tehran streets.";
