As tensions between Iran and the US-Israel coalition intensify, the death toll in the Islamic Republic has risen to 555, according to the Iranian Red Crescent.
The Iranian Red Crescent reported that 131 cities have been affected by the conflict, with 555 of their compatriots killed.
In response to the rising death toll and increasing damage, Israel and the US have continued to pound targets in Iran, with the conflict entering its third straight day.
Iranian forces have fired missiles at Israel and Arab states, hitting the US embassy in Kuwait on Monday.
Visuals showed fire and smoke rising from the US embassy compound in Kuwait City, with the country's defence ministry reporting that several American warplanes had crashed.
The US has issued a warning to its citizens in Kuwait to take cover and for others not to head towards the embassy.
Kuwait's defence ministry said some pilots had been taken to the hospital and were currently stable.
Iran's ambassador to the UN nuclear agency alleged that US-Israeli airstrikes have targeted Iran's Natanz nuclear enrichment site.
Israel and the US have not acknowledged strikes at the site, which America bombed back in the 12-day war between Iran and Israel in June.
