Israel’s air strikes on the headquarters of Iran’s state television in Tehran killed three people, the broadcaster says, a day after the bombing, reports Al Jazeera.
“Three of the TV station’s employees were killed and others were wounded in the Israeli attack” on Monday, the channel said.
Live on air, TV anchor Sahar Emami denounced “aggression against the homeland” as a blast went off and smoke and debris filled the screen. The footage then showed her fleeing the studio.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei accused Israel of committing a “wicked act” that constitutes a war crime and being the number one “killer of journalists and media people”.
