Iran-Israel Missile War Kills Hundreds, Hits Civilians

The conflict between Iran and Israel has intensified into a missile war, resulting in significant civilian casualties and fears of a wider regional escalation. Recent Israeli strikes in Iran killed civilian poet Parnia Abbasi, her family, and a nuclear engineering professor, with the Orkideh Complex in Tehran collapsing and at least 224 deaths reported in Iran, many of whom are civilians. In Israel, Iranian missile attacks have struck residential areas, including Bat Yam, where five Ukrainian refugees seeking medical treatment were killed, contributing to a total of 24 deaths in Israel. Both sides claim to target military objectives, but the high civilian toll highlights the blurred frontlines and the mounting human cost. The conflict has received global attention, with analysts debating the strategic goals and the risk of further escalation. Despite international concern, no ceasefire appears imminent, and both societies face growing fear and uncertainty.
