At least 86 students were killed in an Israeli attack on a girls’ school in Minab, a city in Iran’s southern Hormozgan province, according to Al Jazeera. The incident occurred on Saturday when three missiles struck the primary school, leaving many others injured. Iran’s Ministry of Education spokesperson Ali Farhadi confirmed the attack and the rising number of casualties.

The report added that the strike was part of a broader wave of assaults carried out by the United States and Israel across Iran earlier that morning. Tehran later launched retaliatory attacks in response. The Iranian government has also sent a letter to the United Nations urging action against the aggression.

The situation remains tense as Iran continues to assess the damage and casualties from the coordinated attacks, while international attention focuses on the escalating conflict in the region.
