STORYLINE:
A second police base in the Iranian capital was destroyed in an airstrike on Tuesday as the United States and Israel continued to pound Tehran.

The base was located near Tehran's Enghelab (Revolution) square in the heart of the capital.

The Associated Press filmed the damage as part of an organized Iranian government tour.

Debris lined the street as workers attempted to clear the damage while pedestrians walked by.

Mohammad Mehrabi, a 64-yer-old civil servant who lives in an apartment in the vicinity of the police base, described the moment the blast struck.

His wife was hospitalized, and he was hit by broken glass.

He said he was collecting his family's belongings to leave Tehran and go to another town.

"I hope this ends sooner, and so many people won't be killed anymore," said Monireh Tehrani, another local as she looked at the damaged site.

Several police centers and other military sites have been targeted by strikes in Tehran since the war started on Saturday.
