In Iran

Iranian health authorities reported 610 killed,[2] stating initially that the majority of the early casualties were civilians.[7][8] According to NBC News, the Iranian health ministry stated that more than 2,500 people have been wounded,[3] before later increasing to 4,700.[2] HRANA reported that, as of 28 June 2025, 1,190 had been killed, including 435 military members, 436 civilians and 319 unidentified dead. 4,475 people were injured.[1]

Regional sources said that at least 20 senior commanders were killed in the strikes.[9] Confirmed casualties include Iranian Armed Forces Chief of Staff, Major General Mohammad Bagheri, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commander Hossein Salami, IRGC senior commander Gholam Ali Rashid, and IRGC commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh.[10][11] The IDF said that a strike on an underground command center killed most of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force's leadership after they had convened for a meeting, including IRGC air force commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh as well as the leaders of the IRGC's air defense and drone units.[12] In total, the IDF reported killing at least six senior military commanders—Bagheri, Salami, Ali Rashid, Hajizadeh, IRGC air defense unit commander Davoud Shaykhian, and IRGC drone unit commander Taher Pour.[13] The New York Times reported the death of Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani,[14] although Israel believes that he is still alive.[15] According to Netanyahu, IRGC intelligence chief Mohammad Kazemi and his deputy, Hassan Mohaqeq, were killed.[16] Ali Shamkhani, a rear admiral and member of the Expediency Discernment Council, was reportedly killed in an airstrike on 13 June 2025.[17][18][19][20] Shamkhani was one of the political appointees overseeing the 2025 United States–Iran negotiations.[21] On 16 June, websites citing Iranian media reported that Shamkhani survived, but required a leg amputation and suffered organ damage.[22][23] Iranian media confirmed on 20 June that he was still alive, and in stable condition after recovering from severe injuries from the strike.[24]

Nuclear scientists Fereydoon Abbasi and Mohammad Mehdi Tehranchi were also killed, according to Iranian state media.[25][26] Tasnim News Agency[deprecated source] later added four more scientists who were killed.[27] Israel named nine nuclear scientists who it said were killed, including successors to Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the chief of Iran's nuclear program who was assassinated in 2020. Two regional sources reported on 15 June that the death toll of Iranian nuclear scientists rose to 14, including some killed in car bombings.[28]

Civilians, including women and children, were among the casualties identified.[29][30][31][32] Tasnim News Agency[deprecated source] reported that over 50 people were injured in Tehran's northern district of Tajrish, including 35 women and children who were taken to Chamran Hospital.[32] The governor of Iran's East Azerbaijan province said 31 people were killed during the first day's strikes in the province, including 30 soldiers and one member of the Iranian Red Crescent Society.[33] The Iranian Tennis Federation named professional padel player, Parsa Mansour being amongst the casualties.[34] France 24 interviewed several people inside Iran who said civilians were among the victims of the Israeli attack. Iranian hospital staff reported that children were killed in the Israeli attacks.[30]

The Iranian army has claimed to have downed multiple Israeli fighter jets, allegedly killing one pilot and capturing the other.[35] To date, no evidence has surfaced confirming these claims, while at least one video and one image purporting to show the downing of Israeli F-35's have been debunked as disinformation.[36][37] The IDF has repeatedly denied claims of air force casualties or damage.[38][39] Due to the absence of bomb shelters in Tehran, Iranians were instructed to shelter in underground parking lots.[40]

Iran was reported to have executed Esmail Fekri by hanging on 16 June 2025, after he was arrested in 2023 and convicted of passing sensitive intelligence to Mossad, Israel's national intelligence agency.[41]
