TEHRAN – Tehran Mayor Alileza Zakhani has exposed the human costs of an Israeli regime’s 12-day military attack on Iran, revealing that 3,600 private housing units across the capital have been damaged by assault.
In a gloomy speech on Tuesday, Zakhani confirmed that hundreds of families remained evicted from their homes, highlighting the “clear experience” of the city’s crisis management infrastructure.
“According to documented statistics, 3,600 housing units were damaged during this imposed war,” Zakhani said.
“Of these, 200 units need full reconstruction, 250 need basic reinforcement and 1,500 need repairs.”
Small damage including crushed windows and doors affected the rest. The mayor emphasized that the city’s team is mobilizing by late July to complete minor repairs such as window and door replacements.
The Israeli attack in June brought ordinary citizens into deep difficulty, with some communities taking the brunt of their impact.
Currently, 350 displaced people are evacuating in hotels leased by the local government, with another 450 households urgently calling for temporary housing while the homes are being rebuilt.
For those who have either completely destroyed their homes or are in need of major reconstruction, Zakani outlined the support package.
Beyond housing, the mayor reported widespread supplemental damage. “The claims are formally registered against 875 civilian vehicles that were attacked during the attack,” he said, adding that the city team is currently documenting the losses at home for future compensation.
The devastation that unfolded during the 12-day war was a coordinated US-Israel attack that began on June 13, 2025, targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, civilian infrastructure and military compounds. The attacks extended to the assassination of senior commanders and scientists, many who were executed in residential areas.
Human sacrifices in Iran were serious. At least 1,060 Iranians were martyrs, according to Iranian martyrs and veteran issues.
