Six Dead in U.S.-Israeli Strikes on Iran's Tabriz
The crisis management department of East Azerbaijan province said in a statement carried by a news agency that two separate residential locations within the city were hit during the overnight assault.
Six fatalities and nine injuries were recorded in a strike on the Shahid Qarabaghi neighborhood, according to the statement.
"Rescue and debris removal operations are still ongoing," the statement said.
A second strike struck the Imam Hussein neighborhood, the department confirmed, inflicting damage on local infrastructure. No casualties were reported from that attack.
The strikes form part of a sustained aerial campaign that Washington and Tel Aviv have prosecuted against Iran since launching their joint offensive on Feb. 28 — a campaign that has now killed more than 1,340 people, among them former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
Tehran has responded with relentless waves of drone and missile strikes directed at Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf nations hosting American military installations, inflicting casualties and widespread infrastructure damage while rattling global markets and severely disrupting international aviation.
