Israeli and U.S. strikes on Tuesday hit the Tehran building of a body tasked with electing Iran's new supreme leader, local media reported.

"The American-Zionist criminals attacked the Assembly of Experts building in Qom," south of Tehran, according to the Tasnim news agency.

Local media showed footage of the building severely damaged in the strikes. Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in U.S. and Israeli strikes on Saturday.
