According to the spokesperson for Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya military headquarters, a bank in Tehran was struck by a missile attack in the early hours of Wednesday, March 11.
The spokesperson described the attack, which struck a branch of Bank Sepah on Haghani Street in Tehran, as “illegitimate and unconventional.” He emphasized that this action by Israel and the United States has given the Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) a “free hand” to target economic centers and banks belonging to the U.S. and Israel within the region.
In response, the IRGC warned of possible retaliatory actions and advised people in the region to avoid areas around banks, urging them to stay at least one kilometer away from bank branches and central headquarters in their respective countries.
