Life Inside a War Zone: Why Windows Become a Major Threat
During bombing campaigns, windows are one of the most dangerous elements inside any building.
In Tehran:
- Many buildings are not designed to withstand blast pressure
- Large glass windows are common in apartments and shops
- Shockwaves from nearby explosions can travel kilometers
Even when a strike occurs far away:
- The pressure wave can still shatter glass instantly
- Flying shards can cause serious injuries or death
This is why civilians quickly adapt and begin focusing on minimizing indoor risks.
