On February 28, 2026, a US-Israeli airstrike hit a military complex in Minab, southern Iran, also destroying the nearby 'Shajareh Tayyebeh' primary school. The attack killed 165 people, mostly girls aged between 7 and 12, and wounded at least 95 others. The school was part of a network of institutions affiliated with the IRGC Navy. Iranian authorities reported that the strike was carried out using a US Tomahawk missile. The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor condemned the bombing as a 'horrific crime', stressing that the presence of military facilities nearby did not justify targeting the school. The incident has raised questions about intelligence failures or deliberate targeting of civilians.
