A humanitarian facility operated by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies was targeted in a drone attack in Iran’s Bushehr province early Friday morning, according to an organization spokesperson speaking from Geneva.<\/p>

The attack damaged a storage facility containing humanitarian supplies and emergency response equipment, destroying two aid containers, two buses, and multiple emergency vehicles, the spokesperson confirmed. Officials did not identify who was responsible for the strike, and the source of the attack remains unclear.<\/p>

The Red Cross federation operates as the sole humanitarian organization providing assistance throughout Iran, deploying approximately 100,000 emergency responders across the country. Since military strikes involving U.S. and Israeli forces began on February 28, three humanitarian workers have lost their lives.<\/p>

An Iranian delegation leader from the organization warned Thursday that medical supply needs are increasing dramatically throughout the region, with current stockpiles potentially running dangerously low in the coming days.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
