Human Rights Watch has called for an investigation into a deadly attack on a girls’ primary school in southern Iran that killed at least 160 people. The organization’s Digital Investigation Lab researcher, Sophia Jones, said those responsible for the unlawful assault should be held accountable, including through possible war crimes charges. She emphasized the need for a swift and comprehensive investigation, particularly if the attackers knew the school was occupied by children and teachers before noon.
According to the report, the February 28 attack occurred on the first day of a broader campaign involving hundreds of strikes across Iran by U.S. and Israeli forces. Al Jazeera’s investigation found that the school had been deliberately targeted, while The New York Times reported that the strike was likely carried out by the United States.
The call for accountability underscores growing international concern over civilian casualties in the escalating conflict, with rights groups demanding transparency and justice for the victims.
