Huge fire in southern Tehran following Israeli attacks
A massive blaze was seen in southern Tehran as Israel said it conducted strikes over the Iranian capital. While the fire appeared to originate from Tehran's oil refinery, Iran's oil ministry said in a statement the refinery was "fully intact" and continued to operate normally. Iran and Israel were trading rounds of strikes in the latest salvo since a surprise attack aimed at decimating Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear program. (AP Video: Saeed Sarmadi and Mohsen Ganji)

Israeli military issues evacuation warnings to Iranians near weapons facilities
Smoke rises following an Israeli attack on Tehran Oil Refinery south of Tehran, Iran, June 15, 2025. Majid Asgaripour/ WANA (West Asia News Agency) via REUTERS Israel on Sunday issued evacuation warnings to Iranians living near weapons production facilities in Tehran as the two nations continued to exchange missile attacks that began on Friday. "The Israeli military will strike these sites and will continue to peel away the Iranian snake's skin in Tehran and everywhere—targeting nuclear capabilities and weapons systems," Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a statement. Israel had earlier issued an evacuation warning to Iranians residing near weapons facilities in Iran, an Israeli military spokesperson said in a post on X in Arabic and Farsi. The spokesperson said the warning included all weapons factories and supporting facilities. Israel launched its biggest military strike against Iran on Friday, saying its goal was to stop Iran from developing atomic weapons and to take out Iran's ballistic missile capabilities. — Reuters
