Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency has reported that at least 40 people were killed after an Israeli strike hit a girls’ elementary school in Minab in the southern Hormozgan province.
This is a developing story. I’ve provided some micro-updates in the comments, focusing on the verification of the story.
I recommend this Middle East Eye, and this Guardian article for more on this story.



You’re comparing Israeli and US lies to justify bombing civilians with a country being surprise attacked in the middle of peace negotiations saying one of the 500 targets Israel is gloating about was a school… Because you think it’s the weekend?
Not so fun fact, the weekend in Iran is Thursday and Friday. Yes, there is school on Saturday.
Fair point, I was ignorant of their weekends. But I was also considering that their society has been in disarray during protests for months.
Even that doesn’t mean there wouldn’t be school.
I still distrust news that comes from any of the regimes at play here.
And any deaths of civilians would be tragic. Of course if a school was indeed hit that would be a horrific thing.
