Additionally, one death has been recorded at the event level whose classification (civilian or military) is not specified in the available data. Therefore, to avoid classification errors, it is presented in this report under the category of “undetermined.”
Aggregated data since the beginning of the conflict on February 28, 2026 — based on incidents recorded in the incident tab and using minimum values for figures marked “more than”:

• Civilian fatalities: 1,205 people (including at least 194 children)

• Unclassified fatalities (civilian/military): 283 people

This remainder of this report provides a preliminary analytical overview of documented incidents over the past 24 hours. All figures and classifications are based on information available at the time of publication. As verification continues and more information becomes available, casualty figures and classifications may be updated.

1. Overview of Incidents in the Last 24 Hours

In the last 24 hours, incidents were reported across multiple provinces, reflecting a geographically dispersed pattern of hostilities.  In a large portion of the incidents, the method/type of attack has not yet been confirmed and has been recorded as “undetermined.” In cases where the attack type was identifiable, airstrikes and drone attacks were reported.

Preliminary analysis indicates that Tehran Province, accounting for 37% of the attacks, continues to be targeted more than any other part of the country. After that, as on the previous day, the provinces of Khuzestan (about 6%) and Kermanshah (about 6%) recorded a larger share of today’s attacks. As in previous days, overall the western regions of the country, along with Tehran, show the main concentration of the attacks.

During the same reporting period, 12 military personnel were reported killed. This figure for military casualties is limited exclusively to those reported in connection with attacks on military or paramilitary bases. Where possible, organizational affiliation and operational context are being assessed; however, not all details have been independently verified.

In certain incidents, individuals were killed in proximity to military objectives, but their formal status has not yet been conclusively established. These cases remain under review, and classification may be revised if credible information indicates a different status.

5. Unverified Casualties

As of publication, 52 casualties remain under active review and are currently classified as undetermined.

The classification may remain pending for the following reasons:

• Lack of identifying documentation

• Conflicting reports from sources

• Insufficient information regarding affiliation or role at the time of death or injury

• Ongoing efforts to verify open-source reports through the HRANA network

6. Undetermined Casualties

As of the time of publication, 10 casualties (deaths and injuries) remain classified as undetermined. This includes cases where HRANA has not yet been able to confirm whether the individual was a civilian or military personnel, or where age status (including potential child casualties) has not been conclusively verified.

A Note on HRANA Methodology

The information contained in this report is compiled through HRANA’s established documentation network. Data is collected from a combination of field reports, local contacts, medical and emergency sources, civil society networks, and open source materials, including publicly available images, videos, and official statements where relevant. Each reported incident is logged and assessed through an internal review process before publication.

Given the evolving nature of hostilities, information is gathered on a rolling basis and reflects the status of documentation at the time of publication.

The figures presented in this report may not reflect the full scope of harm. Ongoing hostilities, damage to infrastructure, communication disruptions, restricted access to affected areas, and security risks for sources may limit the ability to document incidents comprehensively.

Delays in medical reporting, difficulties in confirming identities, and restricted access to certain provinces may result in temporary undercounting. As access improves or additional evidence emerges, casualty figures and incident classifications may be revised accordingly.

HRANA remains committed to transparency, methodological rigor, and the continual updating of its findings as new verified information becomes available.

Human Rights Activists in Iran today issued a statement condemning the ongoing conflict between the United States–Israel and Iran, warning of rising casualties and ongoing assessments. HRA described attacks on medical centers and critical infrastructure as serious violations of international humanitarian law and called for an immediate halt to attacks, the protection of civilians, and the full restoration of internet access in Iran.
