Iran reports 555 fatalities from ongoing attacks, with new strikes by U.S. and Israeli forces.

Iran's Red Crescent has announced that the death toll from attacks across the country has risen to 555 since Saturday morning, marking a significant escalation in violence. The Iranian military spokesman stated that the operation 'Honest Promise 4' continues, which involves new waves of military action in response to the ongoing threat.

In addition to the confirmed fatalities, the Iranian Ministry of Education reported that 170 students and teachers were killed due to continuous American-Israeli aggressions. The Israeli military has stated that its air force continues to carry out strikes throughout Iran, specifically targeting rocket launch sites. The Iranian news agencies reported that several cities, including Yazd and Sanandaj, have experienced multiple attacks early today, marking a significant increase in violence.

As tensions rise, Iranian media reported on airstrikes in Isfahan and explosions on Kish Island, alongside aerial assaults in Shiraz and Kerman. American media outlets have also mentioned that the U.S. and Israel are escalating their military actions against Iranian infrastructure. These developments suggest a troubling trajectory for regional security, with increased fatalities and military engagement indicating a potential long-term conflict ahead.
