Tehran official says 80pc of war-damaged areas repaired in the capital
About 80 per cent of war-damaged sites in Iran’s capital have been repaired, Al Jazeera reports citing state broadcaster IRIB.
“More than 60,000 residential and commercial units in Tehran province were hit by American-Zionist attacks during the third imposed war,” Deputy Governor of Tehran Seyyed Kamaleddin Mirjafarian is quoted as saying.
Estimates indicate Iran suffered about $270 billion in direct and indirect damage since the start of the US-Israel war on February 28.
Bridges, ports and railway networks, universities and research centres, and several power plants and water desalination plants were directly hit, while a large number of hospitals, schools and civilian homes were also damaged or destroyed.
