Minab school bombing leaves families grieving and demanding accountability

Three Iranian families recount the Minab school bombing during the Iran-Iraq War: as parents raced to pick up children, a missile destroyed the school, killing Zahra, Sobhan, Hanieh, and Arya, among others. They describe frantic searches, morgue identifications, and the heartbreak of losing their children, with Zahra’s father staying at the rubble until nightfall. A month later, no one is held to account; the US says it is investigating, Trump denies responsibility, and the families press for justice.

Iran in mourning after school bombing reportedly kills at least 80 children

In the US-Israel campaign against Iran, a strike hit the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ school in Minab, killing at least 80 children with many more missing. Video of the aftermath has been verified by fact-checkers and Reuters, and if confirmed the attack would be the deadliest single incident so far. Iranians respond with a mix of fear, defiance and hope amid ongoing protests and a harsh crackdown, while the conflict's broader toll continues to rise.
