Where was your voice when more than 165 innocent Iranian children were massacred in the city of Minab? Why don’t you speak out when hospitals, historical sites, oil facilities, diplomatic police headquarters, fire stations, and residential neighborhoods are deliberately targeted?
Silence in the face of lawlessness and atrocity is nothing less than complicity. Scroll through the replies under your own post and see what people really think about your ‘whitewashing of criminals.’”

Gharibabadi Outlines Iran’s Conditions for Ceasefire with the U.S. and Israel
WANA (Mar 10) – Gharibabadi said Iran’s actions are carried out within the framework of the right to self-defense under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter.

According to him, a country that has been attacked will continue its defensive actions until it is certain that such aggression will not happen again.
“If a ceasefire is to be established or the war is to stop,” he said, “there must be guarantees that aggressive actions against Iran will not be repeated. Otherwise, if another attack occurs after a few months, such a ceasefire would be meaningless.”

WANA (Mar 10) – In the early hours of today, Tehran and several other major Iranian cities—including Karaj and Tabriz—were reportedly hit by heavy air attacks carried out by enemy fighter jets. Eyewitnesses across different parts of Tehran reported powerful explosions during the strikes.
Northern and Eastern Tehran: Reports indicate particularly intense strikes in neighborhoods such as Kamraniyeh, Narmak, and areas near the end of the Artesh Highway. Residents said the blasts were strong enough to shake buildings “like an earthquake,” causing objects inside homes to move.
Western and Southwestern Areas: Districts including Bustan-e Velayat, Chitgar, and Shahr-e Rey also experienced the sound of fighter jets and large explosions.
Other Cities: Additional attacks were reported in areas around Karaj, Shahriar, and Isfahan.
Type of Attacks
Some witnesses reported seeing blue-colored flashes in the sky. Military experts say such flashes could be caused by the ionization of air resulting from the use of air-defense systems or from high-energy missile strikes hitting electrical substations.
Reactions and Simultaneous Developments
The Khatam al-Anbiya Air Defense Base announced that several enemy cruise missiles were successfully intercepted over Tehran.
The attacks occurred simultaneously with remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump regarding escalating tensions with Iran.
According to analyses presented by some experts, the large scale of the strikes on Tehran may represent an attempt by the opposing side to compensate for what they describe as recent successful Iranian operations against the interests of Israel.
At the same time, foreign media have reported that several countries are attempting to persuade Iran to agree to a ceasefire.
This is a developing story and will be updated as new information becomes available.
