From Gaza to Iran: Children and Schools Are Israel’s Targets

On Mar 1, 2026

On Saturday, the first day of the massive US and Israeli attacks on Iran, an Israeli strike hit an elementary girls’ school in Minab, a city in the Hormozgan province of southern Iran, killing over 100 people.

Iranian state media reported that the number of girls killed was at least 118.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi shared a photo of the attack, which he said destroyed the girls’ school and killed “innocent children”.

“These crimes against the Iranian People will not go unanswered,” Araghchi wrote in a post on X.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei also slammed the “blatant crime” and urged action from the United Nations Security Council.
