In a stark revelation amid ongoing conflict, Iran’s Red Crescent chief Pirhossein Kolivand has accused America and Israel of bombing more than 80,000 civilian sites since the war began. Addressing international reporters, he painted a grim picture of widespread destruction across the nation.
Tehran’s streets bear the brunt, with over 20,000 civilian targets struck there. The rest—more than 60,000—scar other provinces. Businesses number 18,790 among the rubble, alongside 266 clinics and 498 schools reduced to debris. Health workers haven’t been spared: 12 dead, over 90 wounded.
Kolivand highlighted the heartbreaking losses—hundreds killed, among them kids and 231 women. Independent media peg the death toll above 1,500. He slammed the strikes for flouting global humanitarian norms, demanding justice.
Iran’s defenses are pushing back hard. IRGC forces say they nailed an Israeli F-16 mid-flight over central skies. State outlets boast of hits on Ben Gurion Airport’s aircraft fuel depots. Zolfaghari issued a dire UAE warning: UAE-based assaults on our islands mean Ras al-Khaimah in the crosshairs next. ‘We hit back where the attack originates,’ he affirmed.
Flashback to February 28: US-Israel coalition raids vaporized Tehran landmarks, claiming Ali Khamenei and top brass. Iran’s counterstrikes lit up Israeli soil and US outposts, fueling a vicious cycle.
With civilian suffering at the forefront, the international community watches warily. Diplomatic channels remain mute as accusations intensify, leaving little room for hope amid the firepower.
