Iran Death Toll Rises to 3,468 in War with US, Israel

Ahmad Mousavi said the toll rose to 3,468 as ceasefire talks continue, while rights groups report higher civilian deaths.

  • On Saturday, Iran's state-run Foundation of Martyrs and Veterans Affairs reported more than 3,400 deaths in the war with the United States and Israel.
  • The conflict erupted in late February with US-Israeli strikes on Tehran, and the announcement came during a two-week ceasefire intended to facilitate negotiations.
  • Different sources report varying death tolls; the US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency cited at least 3,636 deaths on April 7, while the Iranian Legal Medicine Organization reported 3,375 fatalities on April 12.
  • Iranian negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Saturday that "we made progress in the negotiations" with the United States, though "we are still far from the final discussion."
  • AFP cannot independently verify these tolls due to reporting restrictions in the Islamic Republic, while Israeli activists demonstrated against the war at HaBima Square in Tel Aviv.
