Tehran, April 6 (AFP) Apr 06, 2026
Gas supply was restored on Monday after being cut in parts of Tehran following an attack on gas infrastructure at a university in the city, state television reported.

The strike, which occurred in the early hours of Monday, hit a gas pressure reduction station and metering facilities at Sharif University of Technology, causing a leak.

"The attack did not result in a fire, and in less than half an hour, the gas leak was completely fixed," state broadcaster IRIB said.

It said the problem had been "resolved" and gas supply had resumed for residents in affected parts of Tehran.

The attack also hit the university's data centre, which houses an artificial intelligence facility, according to the Fars news agency.

Iranian media carried footage showing extensive damage at the site, with twisted metal, debris and damaged structures across the area.
