Iranian Media Releases Footage of Israeli Missile Strike on Tehran’s Tajrish Square on June 15, Killing at Least 18

Iranian media have released multiple videos showing the moment an Israeli missile strike hit Tajrish Square, a densely populated area in northern Tehran, on June 15, 2025. The footage, captured by city surveillance cameras, depicts two powerful explosions: one impacting the upper floors of a building near the square and another striking the center of the street. The blasts were strong enough to hurl cars and debris into the air, causing extensive damage. Reports indicate that at least 18 people were killed and several others injured in the attack. Israel has claimed its strikes were precise and targeted military and nuclear sites; however, the released videos highlight the significant impact on civilian areas. Some pro-Israeli sources attempted to discredit the footage as artificially generated, but slow-motion and additional post-incident videos have confirmed its authenticity. The attack occurred during a 12-day conflict between Israel and the Islamic Republic of Iran, with the footage providing a stark illustration of the civilian toll in Tehran.
