By Ikram Kouachi

Since the onset of hostilities with Iran on June 13, a total of 8,190 Israelis have been evacuated from their homes, the daily Yedioth Ahronoth reported on Friday, citing the Property Tax Compensation Fund.

The fund also noted that 30,000 claims have been submitted for damages to buildings, vehicles, personal contents, or equipment caused by missile attacks, the daily said.

Hostilities broke out last Friday when Israel launched airstrikes on several sites across Iran, including military and nuclear facilities, prompting Tehran to launch retaliatory strikes.

Israeli authorities said at least 25 people have been killed and hundreds injured since then in Iranian missile attacks.

Meanwhile, in Iran, 639 people have been killed and more than 1,300 wounded in the Israeli assault, according to Iranian media reports.
