TEHRAN, March 15 (Xinhua) -- Regional tensions have remained high since joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Tehran and other Iranian cities starting from Feb. 28, to which Iran and Iran-aligned groups responded with attacks on Israeli and U.S. interests across the Middle East.
As of mid-March, various reports indicated that over 1,300 civilians have been killed in Iran due to U.S. and Israeli strikes, with data from the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency suggesting 1,168 to over 1,200 deaths in the initial weeks of the conflict.
More than 10,000 civilians have been injured, and about 3.2 million have been displaced, according to Iranian health officials and the UN High Commissioner for Refugees.
