Families gather at the shattered remains of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, southern Iran, to mourn children killed in a U.S. airstrike. The Independent reports that initial casualty figures reach around 120 children. The school has become a memorial site where families hold vigils and try to preserve memories of those who died.
The reports describe the site in detail, with photos showing the extent of the damage. While outlets cite similar numbers and link the attack to the first day of hostilities involving Iran and the United States, they also note that a final, confirmed accounting has not been completed. In this account, the focus is on the impact on students and families, including grief and the ongoing effort to document what happened at the school as investigations and verifications continue.
Across the available sources, the main emphasis is on the human toll and the visible destruction at the school, with limited additional detail on the strike’s circumstances beyond that it involves a U.S. strike and occurred during the war’s opening day.
