TEHRAN, Iran - A historic synagogue in Tehran has been "completely destroyed" by U.S.-Israeli strikes that killed at least 15 people across Iran overnight, according to Iranian media reports.
The Rafi-Nia Synagogue was hit when an adjacent residential building in central Tehran was attacked, Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency reported. Video shows civil defense workers searching rubble as Hebrew-language books lie scattered on the ground.
"The Zionist regime showed no mercy," Homayoun Sameh, a Jewish representative in Iran's parliament, told state-linked IRIB News, adding that Torah scrolls remain buried under the debris.
At least six bodies have been recovered in the city of Pardis, east of Tehran, while nine were killed in an Israeli air attack on a residential neighborhood in Shahriar, west of the capital, officials said.
