Massive explosion as Iranian city Ilam hit in air attack | GMA Integrated News

Dramatic footage released on social media on Friday, March 6, showed huge clouds of thick, dark smoke and an explosion in the Iranian city of Ilam. Iran's state-affiliated Noor News reported that the western city, along with Qom, had been hit in air attacks. Reuters confirmed the location from the buildings, trees, arch signage, and hill layout that match the satellite and file imagery of the area. The exact date could not be verified. However, Iran’s state-affiliated agency reported the attack in Ilam on Friday. No older version of the video was found posted online before Friday. Israel said it had launched a new wave of attacks on Iran, saying 50 of its warplanes had struck a bunker beneath the Tehran compound of slain Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, still being used by Iran's leadership after he was killed. | via Reuters Video courtesy: Social media via Reuters #GMAIntegratedNews #BreakingNews Watch the latest news stories from GMA Network's trusted news programs on the GMA Play app. Download now on Google Play and App Store.
