At least 950 people have reportedly been killed in Israeli airstrikes on Iran, according to claims made by a human rights group, intensifying tensions in the Middle East.
The group, which has been monitoring military escalations in the region, stated that multiple sites across Iran were targeted in a series of intense aerial bombardments. These strikes allegedly focused on key military installations, command centers, and suspected nuclear development zones.
While Israel has not officially commented on the full scope of the operation, anonymous sources within the Israeli defense ministry have hinted that the strikes were a direct retaliation for Iran's recent threats and military build-up near regional conflict zones.
Iranian state media has neither confirmed the casualty figures nor disclosed specific details of the damage but has condemned the actions as an act of aggression. International bodies, including the United Nations and the European Union, have called for immediate de-escalation and an independent investigation into the events.
Global analysts fear that the high death toll may trigger a broader military confrontation between Israel and Iran, with potential fallout affecting neighboring countries and disrupting global energy supplies.
The situation remains volatile, and humanitarian organizations have called for urgent access to affected areas to provide aid to civilians caught in the
crossfire.
