The air defense systems in the Iranian capital city of Tehran were activated on Sunday night as the United States and Israel intensified their airstrikes on the city, with explosions reported in multiple areas.
Sepehr Saremi, a correspondent with the China Global Television Network (CGTN), reported that multiple incoming missiles were intercepted by the air defense systems as warning sirens sounded.
"I am reporting from west of Tehran. It's March 29th. It's 11:00 p.m. As you see behind me, Tehran's defense mechanism is being activated constantly," he said.
In the past two hours, there have been attacks in different areas in the capital city, and according to reports, electricity in some districts of Tehran has gone out. Officials have said that they are working intensively to restore electricity in those areas.
"As you see behind me, the defense system is engaging intensively, and different areas of Tehran are being attacked. In the past two days, attacks have been intensifying across the country, especially in Tehran. This morning, some residential places, and also yesterday, were struck by U.S. and Israeli forces.

The U.S.-Israeli war with Iran erupted on Feb. 28 when the United States and Israel launched airstrikes on Tehran and several other Iranian cities. Since then, the attacks have continued, targeting key Iranian military command centers, missile installations, energy infrastructures and nuclear facilities.
