US-Israeli Airstrikes Target Military and Civilian Sites Across Iran
In mid-April 2026, a coordinated wave of US and Israeli airstrikes targeted central Tehran and 13 provinces across Iran. The operation utilized B-2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles, hitting military bases, hospitals, and residential buildings. The Iranian Red Crescent reported 555 fatalities from the extensive bombardment. The widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure and the immediate threat to life displaced an estimated 15,000 people across the affected provinces as residents fled the targeted military and urban zones.
