Since the start of US-Israeli aggression against Iran, more than 1,900 civilians, including women and children, have been killed, and at least 20,000 others have been wounded, according to the Secretary General of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).

In a post published on X on Saturday, Jagan Chapagain said: “In Iran, the human rights situation is rapidly deteriorating.”

He praised the Iranian Red Crescent Society’s staff, stating that despite the worsening condition, they continue to “respond with remarkable courage, providing emergency care and health services across the country.”

The IFRC continues to support the IRCS through operational support and international procurement of critical supplies, he emphasized.

“I call on the international community to show solidarity and support our emergency appeal, and the operation in Iran,” he noted.

In a statement released Wednesday, the IRCS said that the US-Israeli airstrikes had damaged or destroyed more than 115,000 civilian structures across the country over the previous five weeks.
