Airstrikes hit university in Tehran
The Sharif University of Technology has been hit by airstrikes, according to Iranian state media.
The strikes reportedly hit a gas station near the university gas station, causing a "temporary gas outage" in the Sharif neighborhood.
Iranian-American Rep. Yassamin Ansari, D-Ariz., denounced the reported overnight bombing in a post to X on Monday.
"Sharif University is Iran's MIT. They've produced a huge number of engineers who've gone on to Silicon Valley and founded some of the most successful American tech companies," Ansari wrote in her post. "Why are we bombing a university in a city of 10 million people?"
Sharif University is a leading public research institution and widely regarded as Iran's top university for science, engineering and technology.
Masoud Tajrishi, the university's president, condemned the attack in a video message sent from the scene of the incident, standing next to a pile of rubble outside a damaged building.
