At least 40 people — many of them students — have reportedly been killed and 48 wounded after Israeli strikes hit a girls’ primary school in Minab, southern Iran, amid escalating conflict in the region.
At least 40 people, including schoolchildren, were reportedly killed and 48 others wounded after Israeli strikes targeted a girls’ primary school in the city of Minab in southern Iran’s Hormozgan province, local Iranian state media say.
According to Iranian officials quoted by state broadcaster IRIB, the strike hit the school during attacks earlier in the day, and emergency services are still responding to the scene. Eyewitnesses and provincial authorities say rescue teams are searching through debris to recover victims and treat the injured.
The reported attack occurred amid a wider wave of military strikes by Israel — and according to some accounts, joint Israeli-U.S. operations — that have escalated tensions across the region. Tehran has condemned the strikes as a violation of its sovereignty and vowed retaliation.
Because casualty figures from state sources have varied, and independent verification is limited at this time, the exact death toll may continue to be updated as more information becomes available.
