Katz outright threatens Tehran civilians
Although no official Israeli comment has been made regarding the incident, the action is consistent with the threats of Israel Katz, the Israeli foreign minister, who threatened to target civilians in Iran.
The targeting of medical facilities constitutes a direct violation of international humanitarian law and is considered a war crime under the Geneva Conventions. The strike on Al-Farabi Hospital, which serves as a critical regional health center, drew immediate condemnation from Iranian officials and human rights observers.
Iranian authorities stated that multiple civilians were injured and ER services were severely impacted by the Israeli strike on the hospital. Footage from the scene showed significant damage to the hospital’s exterior and surrounding residential buildings.
