TEHRAN, IRAN—As groups of families and others gathered Sunday evening at cafes around Niloofar Square—a middle-class area in eastern Tehran—after breaking their fast for Ramadan, a series of explosions struck the area, leveling several buildings and killing over 20 people, according to witnesses at the scene and later reports from local news sources.
Witnesses who spoke to Drop Site said two explosions hit the area—a smaller strike in the vicinity, followed by a larger one that devastated much of the neighborhood, a tactic known as a “double tap” strike that is used to inflict maximum casualties.
Videos of the immediate aftermath of the attack showed several individuals dead and wounded as well as massive destruction on the street outside. In Cafe Ahla, next to the square, blood and debris soaked the floors. Several patrons who had been sitting there when the attack struck could be seen dead on the floor or with their mutilated bodies still sprawled across their seats.
Oh, good. The US and Israel are deliberately targeting civilians during a holy period. This won’t come back to bite the US at all.
It’s like they have zero idea what caused 9/11 in the first place.
I remember 9/11 and the TV interviews on the street. People had NO IDEA why terrorists would fly planes into US buildings. “Irrational” and “Crazy”.
They want nothing more than another 9/11 as an excuse to do some military adventurism, the project 2025 assholes to be clear, the president is their bitch, and Israel’s obviously.
The fuckers driving this stuff are so mustache-twirling stupidly evil that they are probably doing it on purpose to ensure that part of their legacy is that the next generation can be convinced to treat entire nations’ worth of people as violent animals.
