DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — (AP) — Explosions rang out across Iran’s capital as Israel claimed it was attacking the country.

People in Tehran, Iran, awoke to the sound of the blast. State television acknowledged the blast.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz announced a “special situation” in Israel over Israel attacking Iran. He said schools would be closed in the country on Friday.

There was no immediate word on what was struck.
