Israel says it hit Iran's broadcasting authority, claiming the building served as an armed forces communications center.

TEL AVIV/DUBAI (Reuters) -- An Israeli strike hit Iran's state broadcaster on Monday, with the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog indicating extensive damage to Iran's biggest uranium enrichment plant, and Iran called on the U.S. to force a ceasefire in the aerial war.

Late on Monday, Israel said it hit Iran's broadcasting authority, and footage showed a newsreader hurrying from her seat as a blast struck. Israel's military said the building also served as a communications center used by Iran's armed forces.
