Tehran Residents Keep up Semblance of Normality Amid Destruction
The strikes that killed Iran's supreme leader have left Tehran's 10 million residents navigating intermittent explosions, school closures, and infrastructure damage.
- In the capital, one week after the opening strikes by US and Israeli forces killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, residents face repeated explosions and brief calm.
- A broad-daylight strike hit the country's power centre, shocking residents, and in the opening days of the war Tehran resembled a ghost town as few believed nuclear talks between Iran and the US would prevent conflict.
- In damaged neighbourhoods, security-force blocks and central blocks in Tehran's west and city centre were blasted and choked with rubble, while local salvage crews loaded furniture onto 1960s-design Zamyad pickup trucks.
- Along major roads, armed men in plain clothes and military fatigues inspected cars, while armoured vehicles restricted traffic and locals followed state TV coverage amid explosions.
- Public mourning and religious checks continued as runners and pedestrians in Tehran returned outdoors, with street-art portraits and armed Guards checking faithful at mosques.
