Israel admits over 120 injured in retaliatory Iranian strikes in past 24 hours

Israel’s health ministry says that more than 120 settlers have been injured in retaliatory Iranian attacks over the past 24 hours.

According to the Al‑Ahad news outlet, citing a statement from the ministry on Monday, at least 124 settlers were injured after Iranian armed forces launched a barrage of missiles and drones at Israeli military targets.

The Israeli ministry also stated that at least 1,369 people have been rushed to hospitals for treatment since Iranian forces began launching retaliatory strikes against Israel in late February.

The latest casualty figures were released amid a near‑total blackout imposed by Israel on media coverage of the damage caused by powerful Iranian missile and drone barrages.

The Israeli cabinet has announced special censorship measures restricting reports about damage caused by the Iranian strikes, which the regime’s officials say could expose vulnerabilities in Israel’s military infrastructure.

The United States and Israel attacked Iran on February 28 in an unprovoked act of aggression, assassinating the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, and targeting sites across the country, including schools, hospitals, and sports complexes.

Iran responded by launching missiles and drones at targets inside the Israeli-occupied territories as well as at American bases across the region.

Hundreds of civilians, including a significant number of women and children, have been martyred since US and Israeli forces began bombing Iranian cities.

United Nations experts have strongly condemned the ongoing US-Israeli war against Iran as a flagrant violation of international law.

In a joint statement, the experts stressed that the assault is illegal under international law and constitutes an act of aggression.
