US-Israeli strikes continue to destroy civilian infrastructure across Iran Air strikes continued in and around Tehran in recent hours, with residential areas and key infrastructure reported to have been hit across the capital, Iranian state media reported. The reports said that multiple districts were targeted, including affluent northern areas and neighbourhoods near Mehrabad International Airport, as well as central areas such as Taleghani Avenue.
Iranian officials said the strikes extended to other cities, hitting industrial and civilian infrastructure, including steel facilities in Isfahan and sites in Borujen, Bushehr and Bandar Abbas. A residential complex in Malard, west of Tehran, was also reported to have been targeted, while local sources said a building linked to the former US Embassy compound was affected. Authorities said a strike on a pharmaceutical facility in Tehran caused the “total destruction” of production and research units, calling it a “significant blow to the national medical supply chain.” People walk as members of the Iranian Red Crescent Society work at the site of a reported strike in Tehran, Iran, on 31 March 2026.
