The Israeli Air Force is striking Iranian oil infrastructure in Tehran, Israeli officials say and footage posted to social media shows.

It apparently marks the first time since the start of the current war that Israel is striking national infrastructure in Iran.

The IDF said a short while ago that it had launched a new wave of strikes on Iranian regime infrastructure in the capital, with further details to be provided later.
