Iran Says 10 Nurses Killed In Latest Attacks
Iran’s semi-official ISNA news agency reported that at least 10 Iranian nurses were killed in ongoing US-Israeli attacks, citing the head of the country’s Nursing System Organization. The report said the nurses were killed while on duty or at the scene of service, even as hospitals and emergency staff continued providing care.
Iranian Nurses Killed In Air Attacks
According to ISNA, the deaths were confirmed by the director general of the Nursing System Organization. The report said the nurses were among medical personnel working in affected areas during the latest round of attacks. Iranian authorities have increasingly highlighted casualties among civilian and health-sector workers as the conflict widens.
Iran Health Services Continue Operations
Despite the reported deaths, Iranian officials said medical services were continuing without disruption. The claim suggests that hospitals, emergency responders and frontline care units remain operational even after repeated pressure on the country’s health infrastructure. In recent days, Iranian media has also reported damage to medical and pharmaceutical facilities.
Pressure On Iran’s Medical Sector Grows
The reported killing of nurses adds to mounting concern over the impact of the conflict on Iran’s healthcare system. Iranian officials have said attacks have affected not only military-linked sites but also civilian support infrastructure, including health and emergency services. The latest report is likely to intensify scrutiny over the growing toll on medical personnel and public health operations during the war.
