Iran’s Health Minister Mohammadreza Zafarqandi has said that Israel has attacked three hospitals during the conflict, killing two health workers and a child, and has targeted six ambulances, Reuters states, citing a Fars report.

The Israeli military did not immediately respond to a request for comment. An Iranian missile hit a hospital in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Iran’s NourNews named 15 air defence officers and soldiers it said had been killed in the conflict with Israel.

Fars also reports that Israel had targeted the Isfahan nuclear facility, one of the nation’s biggest, but there was no leakage of hazardous materials.
