It seems that another horrific crime committed by the US-Israeli enemies in the war of aggression on Iran has been neutralized by a miracle.
Images of cruise missiles flying over central Tehran were released on Tuesday morning, April 7.
The videos showed American Tomahawk cruise missiles that were fired to target certain areas in and around Tehran.
One of the American cruise missiles struck a very populated area in ‘Seyed Esmaeil market’ in the Molavi district of central Tehran. However, the warhead of the missile failed to detonate, while the physical impact of the missile caused damages to two shops.
Following the incident, bomb disposal teams were dispatched to neutralize the missile's warhead and secure the impact site.
The missile hitting a civilian area and one of the busiest centers in Tehran demonstrates that civilian locations are not only not safe from the crimes of the US-Israeli alliance, but have also become a routine occurrence for those criminals.
The US and the Israeli regime launched a large-scale unprovoked military campaign against Iran following the assassination of then Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.
The attacks have involved extensive aerial strikes on both military and civilian locations across Iran, causing significant casualties and widespread damage to infrastructure.
In response, the Iranian Armed Forces have carried out retaliatory operations, targeting American and Israeli positions in the occupied territories and at regional bases with waves of missiles and drones.
