Tensions in the Middle East have reached a new peak as Israel launches airstrikes against strategic sites in Tehran.
The most significant damage appears to be at Mehrabad International Airport, where a series of powerful explosions has caused widespread panic and significant fire damage to the facility.
Eyewitnesses in western Tehran described hearing multiple "deafening" blasts starting in the early hours of Saturday.
Preliminary footage suggests that some aircraft at the airport may have been destroyed or damaged during the raid.
While the physical damage is clearly visible, Iranian authorities have not yet released the official number of casualties or the full scale of the destruction.
As one of Tehran’s busiest airports, the closure or damage to Mehrabad will likely cause a major disruption to both local and international travel.
