Strikes hit Russian Orthodox Church in Tehran: Russian embassy

Strikes in the Iranian capital on Wednesday hit a Russian Orthodox Church, damaging the building, but there were no casualties, the Russian embassy in Tehran said.

"On April 1, two strikes were conducted near the Saint Nicholas Orthodox Church in Tehran. Main building, almshouse and several technical facilities were damaged. No victims," the embassy said in a post on X.

It posted images of the aftermath showing a ceiling partially collapsed, debris on the floor and blown out windows.
