RT Arabic office in Tehran evacuating after nearby strike

No casualties among the network’s staff were immediately reported

RT Arabic is evacuating its office in the Iranian capital, Tehran, after a nearby airstrike, the channel reported on Monday. There were no immediate reports of casualties among its staff.

On Saturday, the US and Israel launched a joint military attack against Iran, aimed at killing the country’s leaders and replacing its government. Russia has condemned the decision to use military force as an act of unprovoked aggression and called the targeted killing of the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a political assassination that undermines basic principles of international relations.
