In the last 24 hours, and as of March 24, 2026, at 17:00 ET, HRANA has recorded at least 108 attacks across 57 incidents in 10 provinces, resulting in a total of at least 61 casualties (killed and injured, both civilian and military). Isfahan and Khuzestan provinces experienced the highest waves of attacks, respectively, while Tehran province ranked third in terms of strikes.
According to information recorded and verified by HRANA, from the first minutes of the day until the end of March 24, 2026 (Tehran time), at least 12 civilians were killed and 38 civilians were injured.
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: 1,455 people (including at least 217 minors)
- Military fatalities: 1,167 people
- Unclassified fatalities (civilian/military): 669 people
Note on Official Statements: Alongside HRANA’s independent reporting, several aggregated official figures were also published today by state media, including:
The Ministry of Education announced: “Since the start of the brutal Zionist–American aggression against our beloved homeland, 230 students and teachers have been killed, 177 students and educational staff injured, and more than 600 educational and cultural facilities destroyed.”
The Deputy for Security and Law Enforcement of the Khuzestan Governor’s Office stated: “So far, 950 people have been injured in Khuzestan Province and 25 innocent civilians have been killed, the oldest being a 70-year-old woman and the youngest a 2.5-year-old child.”
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.
For the second time since the start of the war, Isfahan Province was targeted more heavily than Tehran Province, accounting for 31% of all attacks. Khuzestan Province follows with 19%, while Tehran Province, for the first time, ranks third with a 16% share of the attacks. Fars, East Azerbaijan, and Yazd provinces follow next in the ranking.
2. List of Objectives Reported Hit
In the past 24 hours, the recorded attacks have damaged 21 distinct objectives/facilities. These include a range of different types of targets. In some cases, damage caused by nearby strikes or secondary consequences of the attacks has also been reported.
Examples of targets recorded over the past 24 hours:
- Ammand Missile Site (Tabriz)
- Meysam Tammar Basij Base (Tehran)
- Missile Site (Borazjan)
- SAIRAN Optics Building (Isfahan)
- Ammunition Manufacturing Facility (Isfahan)
For a number of the listed targets, the exact nature of the target (civilian/military/dual-use) is still under review, and classifications may be revised as additional information becomes available.
2.1. Facilities Protected Under International Humanitarian Law:
Under international humanitarian law, medical facilities, educational institutions, humanitarian facilities, religious sites, and emergency service centers are among the many objects that maintain special protected status and are afforded special protection. In the past 24 hours, HRANA has preliminarily recorded the following cases:
- Gas Company Facility on Kaveh Street (Isfahan)
- Power Plant Gas Pipeline (Khorramshahr)
- Four Residential Buildings (Tehran)
- Swimming Pool and Multi-Purpose Hall at Kargar Sports Complex, Kooy-e Qaem (Andimeshk)
- Damage to 30 Shops and Businesses (Isfahan)
In the past 24 hours, at least 12 civilian citizens, including two women, have been killed, and 38 civilians, including 2 minors, have been injured. All classifications are preliminary and may be updated as new information becomes available
4. Military Casualties
During the period covered by this report, no reports of military casualties have been received. Military casualties are generally reported in the context of attacks on Army and Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) bases. Where possible, organizational affiliation and operational context are being assessed; however, not all details have yet been independently verified.
In some incidents, individuals have been killed in the vicinity of military targets; however, their official status has not yet been definitively determined. These cases remain under review, and if reliable information indicating a different status becomes available, the classification may be revised accordingly.
It is believed that military casualties are significantly higher than the figures reported in these reports. However, due to the sensitive nature of military information and the limited access of human rights groups and media to locations where military forces are present, this section largely reflects reports of senior officers or military personnel who were present in urban areas
5. Confirmed but Unspecified Casualties
Eleven reported fatalities over the past 24 hours remain classified as ‘undetermined,’ meaning HRANA has not yet been able to confirm whether the individuals were civilians or military personnel.
Today, 12 burials were recorded, related to casualties from attacks in previous days.
A Note on HRANA Methodology
In line with HRANA policy, this report reflects only incidents that occurred within the territorial borders of Iran.
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.
