Media: Over 430 killed in Iran as conflict enters second week

At least 430 people have been killed and 3,500 wounded in Iran since fighting erupted with Israel last week, Iran’s health ministry said on June 20.

In Israel, at least 24 people have been killed, with hundreds more wounded, Caliber.Az reports via Sky News.

The conflict broke out on June 13 after Israel carried out airstrikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites. Iran has since retaliated by launching 450 missiles and around 1,000 drones at Israel, according to estimates from the Israeli military.

The escalating violence has deepened fears of a broader regional conflict as both sides continue to exchange attacks.
