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.

    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.
