The United Nations education agency, UNESCO, has condemned the bombing of a primary school in Minab, southern Iran, as a "grave violation of humanitarian law." The attack, part of broader US and Israeli military operations, reportedly destroyed a girls' school, resulting in approximately 150 fatalities and nearly 100 injuries. Many students are believed to be among the dead.
United Nations Messenger of Peace and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai expressed heartbreak and dismay, calling the killing of children "unconscionable." She reiterated that all parties must protect civilians and schools under international law, emphasizing that "every child deserves to live and learn in peace."
