Of these, 100,000 are residential units, he said.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nKoulivand explained that some of those dwellings have been completely destroyed, while others have sustained damage, and documentation of these damages has been sent to international organizations. Among these, he added, 23,500 were solely commercial units and shops serving as workplaces for ordinary people.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nHe further added that 339 medical facilities, including hospitals, pharmacies, laboratories, health centers, and emergency centers, have also been damaged. Some of these centers have become inactive, while others resumed operations immediately, he said.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nKoulivand pointed to military attacks on medical centers by enemies, noting that missile strikes damaged the Red Crescent rehabilitation complex located next to Khatam Hospital.&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nAdditionally, significant damage was inflicted on Vali-e-Asr, Martyr Motahari, and Martyr Rajai hospitals, the Ameneh Maternity Hospital, the Red Crescent Rehabilitation Complex, and the Welfare Center&mdash;all situated close to each other, he added.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe IRCS chief also reported that 32 universities have been damaged and targeted. He said the number of damages to educational centers and schools is approximately 857, and 20 Red Crescent facilities, including branches, bases, or warehouses, have been directly targeted in US-Israeli strikes.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nRegarding infrastructure damage, Koulivand stated that about 15 infrastructure sites, five fuel tanks, as well as airports and civilian passenger airplanes&mdash;completely non-military&mdash;have been targeted and damaged. Furthermore, 49 rescue vehicles involved in rescue operations and 43 ambulances providing services have been directly hit by missiles, he noted.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nHe emphasized that Iran has conducted very good international follow-ups, saying that through the International Criminal Court and the Red Cross, Iran has pursued violations of humanitarian law, and after serious efforts, the International Committee of the Red Cross issued a statement condemning these violations and confirmed that Iran&rsquo;s documents are recognized by them.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nKoulivand also clarified that Iran has not requested assistance from any country or individual. He stated that the IRCS has told international organizations that its only demand is for other countries to fulfill their responsibilities and take legal actions. He emphasized that this is sufficient for Iran, although many countries have expressed willingness to help, which Iran has not prevented.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe US and the Israeli regime launched a large-scale unprovoked military campaign against Iran following the assassination of then Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIn retaliation, Iranian Armed Forces launched attacks on American and Israeli positions in the region, demonstrating their capability to strike back effectively. Despite initial expectations by the attackers of a swift victory, the Iranian response proved significantly more potent, inflicting heavy damage on US and Israeli military resources while rallying the nation&#39;s unity and resistance.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWhile the US president had issued an ultimatum, Pakistani mediation facilitated an agreement for a two-week ceasefire during which negotiations would take place in Islamabad. Iran has proposed a ten-point plan as the foundation for discussions, seeking terms such as the withdrawal of US forces from the region, lifting sanctions, and establishing control over the Strait of Hormuz.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe Supreme National Security Council of Iran emphasized on April 8 that the aggression led to a historic victory for Iran, compelling the US to accept negotiation terms, including a plan for guaranteed non-aggression and the cessation of hostilities.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIran has stressed that the negotiations would not signify an end to the conflict but rather an extension of the battlefield into diplomatic efforts, with a clear stance of distrust towards the US.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;","content_html":"<p><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">In a televised interview, Pirhossein Koulivand provided an update on the statistics of damages caused by the brutal attacks of the Zionist regime and the United States against civilian areas in Iran during 40 days of onslaught.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">He stated that a total of 125,630 civilian units have been affected nationwide.
