IRAN - Hrana Report on 8th day of war
March 7, 2026: March 7, 2026 - IRAN. Hrana Report on 8th day of war
Roar of Explosions Across 30 Provinces of the Country
In the last 24 hours, and as of March 7, 2026, at 17:00 ET, HRANA has recorded at least 485 attacks across 133 incidents in 30 of 31 Iranian provinces, resulting in a total of at least 53 casualties (killed and injured, both civilian and military). The recent attacks have geographically spread across the entire country, although the focus of the strikes still remains on Tehran and several specific provinces.
According to information recorded and verified by HRANA, from the first minutes until the end of March 7, 2026 (Tehran time), at least 33 civilians have been killed and 8 civilians injured. Additionally, one death has been recorded at the event level whose classification (civilian or military) is not specified in the available data. Therefore, to avoid classification errors, it is presented in this report under the category of “undetermined.”
Aggregated data since the beginning of the conflict on February 28, 2026 — based on incidents recorded in the incident tab and using minimum values for figures marked “more than”:
- Civilian fatalities: 1,205 people (including at least 194 children)
- Military fatalities: 187 people
- Unclassified fatalities (civilian/military): 283 people
This remainder of this report provides a preliminary analytical overview of documented incidents over the past 24 hours. All figures and classifications are based on information available at the time of publication. As verification continues and more information becomes available, casualty figures and classifications may be updated.
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. In a large portion of the incidents, the method/type of attack has not yet been confirmed and has been recorded as “undetermined.” In cases where the attack type was identifiable, airstrikes and drone attacks were reported.
Preliminary analysis indicates that Tehran Province, accounting for 37% of the attacks, continues to be targeted more than any other part of the country. After that, as on the previous day, the provinces of Khuzestan (about 6%) and Kermanshah (about 6%) recorded a larger share of today’s attacks. As in previous days, overall the western regions of the country, along with Tehran, show the main concentration of the attacks.
2 - List of Objects Reported Hit
In the past 24 hours, the targeting or damage of 63 unique objects or facilities has been confirmed. These objects include a range of targets. 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.
Examples of targets recorded in the past 24 hours:
- Mehrabad Airport (Tehran)
- Municipality of District 16 (Tehran)
- Shahid Boroujerdi Logistics and Support Garrison (Tehran)
- Khatam al-Anbia Joint Air Defense Headquarters (Ahvaz)
- Shahid Babaei 8th Tactical Air Base (Isfahan)
For a number of the listed targets, the exact nature of the target (civilian/military/dual-use) is still under review, and classifications may be revised as additional information becomes available.
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. In the past 24 hours, HRANA has preliminarily recorded the following cases:
- An emergency response base (Tehran)
- A medical clinic (Zanganeh)
- A girls’ school (Khomein)
- A residential home (Eslamshahr)
- The Qeshm Island desalination plant (Qeshm)
4 - Civilian Casualties
In the past 24 hours, at least 33 civilians, including one woman, have been killed and 8 civilians injured. All classifications are preliminary and may be updated if new information becomes available.
5 - Military Casualties
During the same reporting period, eight 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. In some incidents, individuals were killed near military targets, but their official status has not yet been definitively determined. These cases are still under review, and the classification may be revised if credible information indicating a different status becomes available.
It is believed that military casualties are significantly higher than the figures reported in these reports. However, due to the sensitive nature of military information and the limited access of human rights groups and media to locations where military forces are present, this section largely reflects reports of senior officers or military personnel who were present in urban areas.
6 - Unverified Casualties
Among the data recorded for the past 24 hours, no cases have been registered as unconfirmed casualties.
7 - Confirmed but Unspecified Casualties
At the time of publication, one death from the past 24 hours remain classified as unspecified, meaning that HRANA has not yet been able to determine with sufficient certainty whether the individuals were civilians or military personnel.
Additionally, three burials linked to attacks from previous days were recorded 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.
