AhlulBayt News Agency: The Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) has announced that the number of martyrs in US-Israeli attacks against Iran has increased to 787.
In a statement on Tuesday, the IRCS said that 787 people have been martyred in the US-Israeli attacks so far.
The search operations and health care delivery are ongoing, it added.
The IRCS further noted that 153 cities across the country have been hit by the attacks since the ongoing aggression began on Saturday.
The US and the Israeli regime launched joint military aggression on Iran on February 28 some eight months after they attacked the country in June last year. Both attacks came as Tehran was in the midst of diplomatic talks with Washington over its peaceful nuclear program.
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei was assassinated in a US-Israeli terrorist airstrike targeting his residence and office early on Saturday.
Analysts see this as proof of US preference for military force over diplomacy. In response, Iran carried out targeted, proportionate self-defense strikes against Israeli positions and US regional bases, warning that further aggression will face a harsher response.
