March 12, 2026 - IRAN. Hrana Report on 13th day of war
More Than Three Million Displaced
In the last 24 hours, and as of March 12, 2026, at 17:00 ET, HRANA has recorded at least 312 attacks across 109 incidents in 15 provinces, resulting in a total of at least 124 casualties (killed and injured, both civilian and military). Today’s reports indicate that, alongside Tehran, the provinces of Khuzestan, Isfahan, and Alborz were among the main areas targeted by the attacks. Meanwhile, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees announced today that approximately 3.2 million people have been temporarily displaced within Iran as a result of the ongoing conflict.
According to information recorded and verified by HRANA, from the first minutes of the day until the end of March 12, 2026 (Tehran time), at least ten civilians were killed and 91 civilians injured. Additionally, 21 deaths have been recorded for which the classification (civilian or military) is not specified in the available data. To avoid potential misclassification, these cases are presented in this report under the category of “unspecified.”
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: 1,286 people (including at least 200 children)
- Military fatalities: 199 people
- Unclassified fatalities (civilian/military): 373 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.
Alongside the independent reports of HRANA, organizations such as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees have also presented their findings on the latest developments in Iran.
The agency announced that, as a result of the ongoing conflict in Iran, approximately 3.2 million people (equivalent to about 600,000 to 1 million households) have been temporarily displaced within the country. According to the organization, most of the displaced have moved from Tehran and other major cities to northern and rural areas. Among the affected population, refugees residing in Iran, particularly Afghan nationals, are also in a vulnerable situation due to insecurity and limited access to essential services.
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 about 37% of the recorded attacks, has been the most heavily targeted area, as on all days since the start of the war. It is followed by Khuzestan Province, which experienced 16% of the attacks over the past 24 hours, while Isfahan Province witnessed 14% of the total attacks during the same period.
2 - List of Objects Reported Hit
In the past 24 hours, the recorded attacks have damaged 35 distinct objects or 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:
- 92nd Armored Division (Ahvaz)
- Naval Base (Konarak)
- Karbala Headquarters Command (Ahvaz)
- Industrial Warehouse (Kheirabad / Arak)
- Six Production Units in an Industrial Town (Arak)
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 objects that maintain special protected status and are afforded special protection. In the past 24 hours, HRANA has preliminarily recorded the following cases:
- Dareh Shour Tourist Camp (Qeshm)
- Rashk-e Jenan Historic Palace (Governorate Building) (Isfahan)
- Residential Unit (Langirat Village, Behbahan)
- Residential Neighborhood in Golestan District (Ahvaz)
- Boostan Hospital (Ahvaz)
3 - Civilian Casualties
In the past 24 hours, at least 10 civilians, including 3 woman, have been killed, and 91 civilians have been injured. All classifications are preliminary and may be updated if new information becomes available.
4 - Military Casualties
During the period covered by this report, two military personnel were killed. 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
At the time of publication, 21 deaths recorded over the past 24 hours remain classified as “unspecified.” This means that HRANA has not yet been able to determine with sufficient certainty whether these individuals were civilians or military personnel.
Burials: Today, 24 burial cases resulting from attacks on previous days have been recorded.
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.
