I’m not getting this.

The video looks like its showing random explosions around tehran.

The only thing Israel wants are the nuclear facilities.

Even then the only ordanance they would use would be these huge bunker buster bombs.

why would they have small munitions going off all over tehran?

Maybe blowing up what's left of Iran's air defense before the main strike.

Israel could be taking out the command and control facilities, plus targets like radar installations. That would make hitting the nuclear sites a bit later much easier.

Military assists in and around Tehran taken out. And when you see an apartment building that’s hit on the 6th floor, you can bet a VIP is or was residing there.

Sounds right - and maybe taking out communication centers.

Rapid decapitation of Iranian leadership and military assets before retaliation.

This would be a sensible plan, if indeed that is what is happening. I don’t believe Israel really wants to do just that but we shall see.
