**US-Israel War on Iran Hits 100 Days: The Numbers Don’t Lie**
The US-Israel war on Iran has reached a chilling milestone – 100 days of unrelenting violence, with no end in sight. Since February 28, the conflict has claimed an estimated **1,300 civilian lives**, leaving **millions** displaced and struggling to access basic necessities like food and water.
The war has also taken a devastating toll on Iran’s economy, with estimated losses **topping $50 billion**. The global economy is feeling the pinch too, as oil prices soar due to the ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping route. The **price of crude oil has jumped by over 20%** since the conflict began, putting a strain on countries that rely heavily on imported oil.
Al Jazeera’s interactive visualisation reveals the stark reality of the war’s impact. The **number of daily air strikes** has slowed significantly since the April 8 ceasefire agreement, but **sporadic firefights** between Iranian and Israeli forces continue to erupt along the border. This fragile stalemate has kept the Strait of Hormuz largely closed, with **only a handful of ships** successfully passing through in recent weeks.
What this means: The prolonged conflict is putting immense pressure on Iran’s already strained healthcare system, and the global economy is feeling the pinch. As the war drags on, the humanitarian crisis deepens, and the world waits with bated breath for a resolution that seems increasingly elusive.
As the international community struggles to broker a lasting peace, the human cost of the war continues to mount. The **number of displaced persons** has reached **over 1.5 million**, with many more struggling to access basic necessities like food and shelter. The war has also had a disproportionate impact on women and children, who are bearing the brunt of the humanitarian crisis.
As the conflict enters its second quarter, it’s clear that the US-Israel war on Iran is far from over. The international community must redouble its efforts to find a peaceful resolution, or risk exacerbating the worsening humanitarian crisis.
