AhlulBayt News Agency: Head of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) Pir-Hossein Kolivand says 125,630 civilian units have been damaged in US-Israeli strikes in Iran.
Speaking to IRNA on Friday, Kolivand said a total of 125,630 civilian units have been damaged across the country of which 100,000 ones are residential buildings.
Some of these units have been completely destroyed, while others have suffered serious damage, he added.
Of the total damaged properties, 23,500 units belong to commercial centers and people’s workplaces, he noted.
In these attacks, 339 medical centers, including hospitals, pharmacies, laboratories, health centers, and emergency units, were targeted, Kolivand said.
Some were temporarily taken out of service, while others resumed their activities immediately, he added.
Referring to legal and international actions taken, he said the issue has been pursued through the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).
After continuous consultations, the ICRC issued a statement condemning these attacks and confirmed that the documents submitted by Iran have been accepted by this body, he reiterated.
Iran has not made any official request for aid from foreign countries or international bodies and has only called for these bodies to fulfill their legal responsibilities, Kolivand said.
The United States and Israel launched a war of aggression against Iran on Saturday morning by assassinating Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and top military commanders, despite the indirect Tehran-Washington negotiations.
