Health ministry spokesman Hossein Kermanpour, in a statement issued Sunday, said that the “false slogan” that Israel targets only military sites has been exposed as baseless.
So far, 1,481 individuals have been killed or wounded in the attacks. Of those, 1,277 have been hospitalized, with more than 90 percent identified as civilians.
“So far, 522 individuals have been discharged, while 224 men, women, and children have lost their lives as a result of the attacks,” he noted.
Health Minister Mohammadreza Zafarghandi also stated the majority of the victims of Israeli aggression on Iran in recent days have been civilians, including a significant number of women and children.
