At least 1,900 civilians killed in Iran due to US-Israeli aggression: Official
Since the start of US-Israeli aggression against Iran, more than 1,900 civilians, including women and children, have been killed, and at least 20,000 others have been wounded, according to the Secretary General of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
In a post published on X on Saturday, Jagan Chapagain said: “In Iran, the human rights situation is rapidly deteriorating.”
He praised the Iranian Red Crescent Society’s staff, stating that despite the worsening condition, they continue to “respond with remarkable courage, providing emergency care and health services across the country.”
The IFRC continues to support the IRCS through operational support and international procurement of critical supplies, he emphasized.
“I call on the international community to show solidarity and support our emergency appeal, and the operation in Iran,” he noted.
In a statement released Wednesday, the IRCS said that the US-Israeli airstrikes had damaged or destroyed more than 115,000 civilian structures across the country over the previous five weeks.

“115,193 civilian units, including 91,498 homes and 22,580 commercial facilities, have suffered severe damage or been completely destroyed,” it added.
At least 736 schools and educational centers have been directly hit and either completely destroyed or severely damaged by the US-Israeli attacks, according to the statement.
The US and Israeli armed forces launched their military aggression against Iran in late February by attacking 30 targets across Tehran, assassinating the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei and several senior Iranian officials.
Since then, Iranian armed forces have retaliated swiftly by launching barrages of missiles and drones at Israeli‑occupied territories as well as US bases across the region.
According to Iran’s Ministry of Defense, Iranian forces have killed at least 600 American troops at various US bases since the start of the aggression.
