In a somber address on Tuesday, Zakani confirmed hundreds of
families remain displaced from their homes, underscoring a "defining
experience" for the city’s crisis management infrastructure.
"According
to documented statistics, 3,600 residential units suffered damage during this
imposed war," Zakani stated.
"Among these, 200 units require complete
reconstruction, 250 need fundamental reinforcement, and 1,500 necessitate
repairs."
Minor damage, including shattered windows and doors,
affected the remainder. The mayor emphasized that municipal teams are
mobilizing to complete minor repairs, such as window and door replacements, by
late July.
The Israeli assault that took place in June plunged ordinary
citizens into profound hardship, with some communities bearing the brunt of the
impact.
Currently,
350 displaced families are sheltering in hotels leased by the municipality,
with another 450 households urgently requiring temporary housing while their
homes undergo rebuilding.
For those whose residences were fully destroyed or require
major reconstruction, Zakani outlined a support package, "Affected
families will receive 1.5 billion tomans for deposits and 30 million tomans
monthly rent assistance" to alleviate their burdens.
Beyond housing, the mayor reported extensive ancillary
damage. "Claims have been formally registered for 875 civilian vehicles
struck during the attacks," he said, adding that municipal teams are now
documenting losses of household belongings for future compensation.
The
devastation unfolded during the 12-Day War — a coordinated US-Israeli assault
launched on June 13, 2025, targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, civilian
infrastructure, and military compounds. The offensive extended to the
assassinations of senior commanders and scientists, many executed in
residential areas.
Iran’s human toll has been severe. At least 1,060 Iranians
were martyred, according to Saeed Ohadi, head of Iran’s Foundation of Martyrs
and Veterans Affairs, who said the figure could rise to 1,100 given the
critical condition of many wounded.
