The National Security Council meeting was taking place on the lower floors of a building in western Tehran before noon on Monday, June 26, when the Israeli attack began, the Fars news agency reported.
Fars described the attack as being similar to a previous Israeli assassination operation which killed the secretary-general of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, in September last year: “The attackers targeted the entrances and exits of the building by firing six bombs and missiles to block escape routes and cut off the airflow.”
