Tehran, Iran – 19 June 2025

STORYLINE:
Iran’s state broadcaster allowed the media to film the aftermath of an Israeli strike against its building in Tehran.
Dust and debris filled an Iranian state television studio and an anchor rushed off camera on Monday when an Israeli strike hit during a live broadcast, an hour after Israel issued a warning for the area of Tehran where the station is located.
Sahar Emami, an anchor at the Islamic Republic of Iran News Network, was seen hurrying off-camera as the screen behind her cut out.
People on set were heard saying “Allahu akbar,” the Arabic phrase for God is great.
The broadcast quickly switched to pre-recorded programs.
The station later said that the building was hit by four bombs.
Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz took immediate credit for the attack.
Esmaeil Baqaei, spokesman for the Iranian foreign minister, condemned the strike, calling on the international community to demand justice from Israel for its attack on the media.
