Iran Bleeds: Over 650 Dead After First Week of Israeli Airstrikes

The skies over Iran have turned deadly.

In just one week, more than 650 people have been killed in a relentless wave of Israeli airstrikes, according to the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA). The strikes, which Israel claims are aimed at halting Iran’s nuclear ambitions, have left cities in ruins, families shattered, and a nation on edge.

💔 A Nation Under Fire

From Tehran to Ilam, the bombs have fallen indiscriminately.

• 263 civilians are confirmed dead, including women and children.
• 164 military personnel have also been killed.
• Over 2,000 people injured, many critically.
• A children’s hospital in Tehran was struck—miraculously, no casualties were reported there.

In the western province of Ilam, a fire station was destroyed, and a car factory explosion lit up the night sky.

🎯 Israel’s Justification: Preemptive Defense

Israel insists the strikes are preemptive, aimed at preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. But critics argue the campaign has crossed the line into collective punishment, with civilians paying the highest price.

🧠 What Happens Next?

Iran’s top military generals are among the dead. The country’s leadership has vowed “punishment operations” in response. Meanwhile, the U.S. and other global powers are weighing their next moves, with fears of a broader regional war growing by the hour.

🧠 Final Thoughts—When Will the Bombs Stop Falling?

This isn’t just geopolitics—it’s human lives reduced to rubble.

As the world watches, one question echoes louder than the explosions: How many more must die before diplomacy takes flight?

💬 Is this the price of deterrence—or the cost of silence? Let’s talk.
