An Israeli strike directly hit an Iranian state television studio during a live broadcast, causing dust and debris to fill the set and forcing an anchor off-camera.
Israel's Defense Minister, Israel Katz, claimed responsibility, stating the attack targeted the 'Iranian regime’s propaganda and incitement broadcasting authority' after residents were evacuated.
Iran condemned the strike as a 'wicked act of war crime,' while the Committee to Protect Journalists also denounced the targeting of media.
The incident occurred an hour after Israel issued an evacuation warning for central Tehran, escalating a four-day conflict marked by mutual missile and drone attacks.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
