Iran claims US attacks damaged Iran's civilian infrastructure, killed over 350 government employees
The recent U.S. attacks on Iran caused "severe damage" to civilian infrastructure across Iran, including airports, bridges, railways and energy facilities, Iranian government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani said during a press briefing Tuesday.
Mohajerani also said more than 350 Iranian government employees had been killed. Twelve bridges and two tunnels have also been damaged, she said.
"The recent attacks have inflicted severe damage on civilian infrastructure across the region. Tourism businesses have suffered crippling losses. In Bushehr, the Meteorological Center, a purely civilian facility dedicated solely to weather forecasting, has been almost entirely razed, with virtually nothing left standing," Mohajerani said.
Adding, "The Bushehr Airport has likewise been rendered completely inoperable and will require total reconstruction. Furthermore, the maritime control tower at Chabahar has been destroyed."
