IRAN - Hrana Report on 24th day of war
March 23, 2026: March 23, 2026 - IRAN. Hrana Report on 24th day of war
A Deadly Day for Civilians
In the last 24 hours, and as of March 23, 2026, at 16:00 ET, HRANA has recorded at least 379 attacks across 206 incidents in 20 provinces, resulting in a total of at least 175 casualties (killed and injured, both civilian and military). Fifty-five percent of all attacks carried out in the past 24 hours were concentrated in Tehran.
According to information recorded and verified by HRANA, from the first minutes of the day until the end of March 23, 2026 (Tehran time), at least 36 civilians were killed and 138 civilians were injured.
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: 1,443 people (including at least 217 minors)
- Military fatalities: 1,167 people
- Unclassified fatalities (civilian/military): 658 people
Note on Official Statements: Alongside HRANA’s independent reporting, several aggregated official figures were also published today by state-affiliated media, including:
The head of Tehran Province Emergency Center stated: “So far, 6,848 people in Tehran have been injured as a result of the Ramadan-imposed war. Of these, 5,608 were transferred to medical centers after receiving initial treatment by Tehran emergency teams. Unfortunately, 636 people have been killed in Tehran during this period.”
The Cultural Deputy of the Foundation of Martyrs and Veterans Affairs in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province stated: “The names of 16 individuals from this province who were killed in the U.S. and Zionist regime’s imposed war against our country, while in other provinces, have been identified and announced.”
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 55% of all recorded attacks, ranks first among the most targeted provinces. Isfahan and Alborz provinces follow jointly with 10% each, while East Azerbaijan ranks third with 7%. The list is followed by Yazd, Lorestan, and Hormozgan provinces, respectively.
2. List of Objectives Reported Hit
In the past 24 hours, the recorded attacks have damaged 46 distinct objectives/facilities. These include a range of different types of targets. In some cases, damage caused by nearby strikes or secondary consequences of the attacks has also been reported.
- Examples of targets recorded over the past 24 hours:
- Meythami Base (Garmdareh)
- Imam Ali Garrison (Khorramabad)
- Air Base (Bushehr)
- Headquarters of the Air Force (Tehran)
- Army Aviation (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.
2.1. 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 Objectives that maintain special protected status and are afforded special protection. In the past 24 hours, HRANA has preliminarily recorded the following cases:
- Shohada-ye Pasdar School (Khorramabad)
- A 17-unit residential building (Tehran)
- Velayat Cultural Center (Shahr-e Rey)
- Three residential units (Tehran)
- Gas Company (Tehran)
3. Civilian Casualties
In the past 24 hours, at least 36 civilian citizens, including 3 minors, have been killed, and 138 civilians, including 2 children and 1 woman, have been injured. All classifications are preliminary and may be updated as new information becomes available
4. Military Casualties
During the period covered by this report, no reports of military casualties have been received. Military casualties are generally reported in the context of 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 yet been independently verified.
In some incidents, individuals have been killed in the vicinity of military targets; however, their official status has not yet been definitively determined. These cases remain under review, and if reliable information indicating a different status becomes available, the classification may be revised accordingly.
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
5. Confirmed but Unspecified Casualties
Of the reported casualties in the past 24 hours, one death remains classified as undetermined, meaning that HRANA has not yet been able to establish with sufficient certainty whether the individual was a civilian or military personnel.
Today, 16 burials resulting from attacks in previous days have been recorded.
A Note on HRANA Methodology
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.
