Night of Fury: Explosions Rock Tehran as Israel Intercepts Iranian Missiles Over Jerusalem

Tehran was plunged into darkness on Tuesday night, March 31, 2026, following a series of massive explosions that knocked out power in several districts, including eastern parts of the Iranian capital. According to Fars and Tasnim news agencies, authorities are struggling to restore electricity as the nature of the blasts remains unconfirmed amid ongoing military tensions.

Simultaneously, at least 10 loud explosions echoed across the skies of Jerusalem. The IDF confirmed that its multi-layered air defense systems intercepted a barrage of missiles launched directly from Iran. Sirens blared throughout the holy city as Iranian state television announced a major retaliatory strike, marking a dangerous new peak in the month-long direct military confrontation.
