'I really don't want my beautiful Tehran to turn into Gaza ': Iranians tell of shock and confusion.

' Donya ' - she doesn't want to reveal her real name - is one of many Iranians caught in a war between a regime she loathes and Israel .

Unlike in Israel , there are no warnings of imminent attacks in Iran , and no shelters to run to.

Many Iranians keep changing their minds about what they think, even among some families.

And Iranians are not being given accurate information on what is happening, she says. "The main person in Iran - the supreme leader - is still alive while Iranians are fleeing for their lives," she adds. "No one wants Iran to turn into another Iraq , Syria or Afghanistan . None of us wants this war. We don't want the regime either.".
