March 5, 2026: March 5, 2026 - IRAN. Hrana Report on 6th day of war
170 Strikes in 19 Provinces
In the last 24 hours, and as of March 5, 2026, at 17:00 ET, HRANA has recorded at least 170 attacks across 113 incidents in 19 provinces, resulting in a total of at least 79 casualties (killed and injured, both civilian and military). According to aggregated data since the outbreak of the conflict on February 28, the total number of reported civilian deaths has reached 1,168 including 194 minors, most of them under the age of ten. An additional 336 reported deaths are currently under review for verification and classification.
Based on information verified today, HRANA has recorded 9 civilian deaths, including one child, and 38 civilian injuries, as well as 3 military personnel killed. During the last 24-hour period, 29 cases (deaths and injuries) remain under review for verification and classification, including assessment of whether individuals were civilians or military personnel.
In addition, 26 sites were hit in 67 attacks over the past 24 hours. These include a range of locations and infrastructure, including several military bases, several dual-use sites, and a stadium. The nature of these objects, whether under special protected status, civilian, military, or dual use, remains under review, and classifications may be revised as further information becomes available. The list of 26 recorded targets are included in this report and reflect both objects reportedly directly targeted and those documented as damaged due to nearby strikes or collateral effects.
Aggregated data since the beginning of the conflict on 28 February 2026: The total number of reported civilian deaths stands at 1,168, including 194 minors under 18, with 336 reported deaths currently and under review pending verification and classification.
This report provides a preliminary analysis of incidents documented within the last 24 hours. All figures and classifications contained herein are based on information available at the time of publication. As verification efforts continue and additional information becomes available, casualty figures, classifications of individuals as civilian or military, and the categorization of damaged objects may be updated.
HRANA applies a verification methodology that relies on cross-checking field reports, local sources, medical and emergency contacts, and available open source material. In cases where information cannot yet be conclusively verified, incidents or casualties are classified as undetermined and remain under active review. The dynamic nature of the situation, access constraints, and communication disruptions may affect the completeness of current data.
1- Overview of Incidents in the Last 24 Hours
In the last 24 hours, incidents were reported across multiple provinces, reflecting a geographically dispersed pattern of hostilities. The documented incidents include airstrikes and missile attacks, primarily involving cruise missiles.
Preliminary analysis indicates that Tehran Province, accounting for 32% of the attacks, continues to be targeted more than any other part of the country. Khuzestan and Kermanshah provinces rank next, accounting for 14% and 11% of the attacks, respectively. Western regions of the country continue to bear a significant share of the airstrikes.
2 - List of Objects Reported Hit
In the last 24 hours, the following objects were reported as hit. Please note that this list includes not only objects reportedly directly targeted, but also those documented as damaged as a result of nearby strikes or blast effects. This list is not exhaustive; the items listed are illustrative.
- The Ministry of Intelligence office in Sardasht
- The IRGC Imam Ali garrison in Sanandaj
- A paper factory in Malayer
- The Chazabeh border terminal in Dasht-e Azadegan
- Jannat Abad Police Station No. 138 in Tehran
For a number of the above-listed objects, the precise nature of the target, whether civilian, military, or dual use, remains under review. Verification efforts are ongoing to determine the status and function of each object at the time of the reported strike. As further information becomes available, classifications may be revised in subsequent updates.
3- Facilities Protected Under International Humanitarian Law:
Under international humanitarian law, medical facilities, educational institutions, humanitarian facilities, religious sites, and emergency service centers are among the many objects that maintain special protected status and are afforded special protection.
As of the past 24 hours, HRANA documents reported damage to the following facilities protected by IHL. The information below reflects preliminary findings and remains subject to verification. This list is not exhaustive; those listed are illustrative.
- A residential building in Tehran
- The 12,000-seat Azadi Stadium in Tehran
- Yas Nabi Girls’ Elementary School in Tehran
- District 18 Municipality in Tehran
- Basat Stadium in Tehran
4- Civilian Casualties
All casualty figures presented below are based on information available at the time of publication. The classification of individuals as civilian, military, or undetermined is preliminary and subject to change as further verification is conducted. Where sufficient corroboration is not yet available, cases remain under review and may be reclassified in subsequent updates.
In the last 24 hours, 9 civilians were reported killed, and 38 civilians were reported injured across 19 provinces. One child is among those killed.
5- Military Casualties
During the same reporting period, three military personnel were reported killed. Military casualties have primarily been reported in connection with attacks on Army and Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) bases. Where possible, organizational affiliation and operational context are being assessed; however, not all details have been independently verified. Access to information and statistics regarding military casualties remains particularly challenging.
In certain incidents, individuals were killed in proximity to military objectives, but their formal status has not yet been conclusively established. These cases remain under review, and classification may be revised if credible information indicates a different status.
6- Unverified Casualties
As of publication, 336 casualties remain under active review and are currently classified as undetermined. The classification may remain pending for the following reasons:
- Lack of identifying documentation
- Conflicting reports from sources
- Insufficient information regarding affiliation or role at the time of death or injury
- Ongoing efforts to verify open-source reports through the HRANA network
7- Undetermined Casualties
As of the time of publication, 29 casualties (17 deaths and 12 injuries over the last 24 hours) remain classified as undetermined. This includes cases where HRANA has not yet been able to confirm whether the individual was a civilian or military personnel, or where age status (including potential child casualties) has not been conclusively verified. Reports of 18 burial ceremonies for victims of incidents in recent days were also documented today.
A Note on HRANA Methodology
Note that, in line with HRANA policy, this report reflects only incidents that occurred within the territorial borders of Iran.
The information contained in this report is compiled through HRANA’s established documentation network. Data is collected from a combination of field reports, local contacts, medical and emergency sources, civil society networks, and open source materials, including publicly available images, videos, and official statements where relevant. Each reported incident is logged and assessed through an internal review process before publication.
Given the evolving nature of hostilities, information is gathered on a rolling basis and reflects the status of documentation at the time of publication.
The figures presented in this report may not reflect the full scope of harm. Ongoing hostilities, damage to infrastructure, communication disruptions, restricted access to affected areas, and security risks for sources may limit the ability to document incidents comprehensively.
Delays in medical reporting, difficulties in confirming identities, and restricted access to certain provinces may result in temporary undercounting. As access improves or additional evidence emerges, casualty figures and incident classifications may be revised accordingly.
HRANA remains committed to transparency, methodological rigor, and the continual updating of its findings as new verified information becomes available.
