Tehran / United Nations — Iran’s UN ambassador has accused the United States and Israel of deliberately targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure in the ongoing war that began on February 28, 2026, saying nearly 10,000 civilian sites have been hit and more than 1,300 Iranian civilians killed so far. 📍 Key Details Iran’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani, said the strikes have destroyed around 9,669 civilian structures, including homes, schools, medical centres, and commercial buildings. The Iranian statement claims residential neighbourhoods and critical infrastructure were hit indiscriminately, a claim Iran says violates international law. Earlier today, Iranian state media also reported dozens of alleged spies linked to the US and Israel were arrested amid the conflict escalation.
