Satellite images and expert analysis suggest that a U.S. airstrike likely caused a devastating explosion at Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab, Iran, killing over 165 individuals, predominantly children. The incident is being heavily criticized by the United Nations and human rights observers amid international condemnation.
This deadly event marked the highest reported civilian death toll since the conflict began. The explosion, which left the school in ruins, occurred when an airstrike also targeted an adjacent compound tied to Iran's Revolutionary Guard. The blast presents significant concerns about potential intelligence failures in targeting military objectives.
Despite the gravity of the incident, the U.S. and Israel have both denied responsibility. The Pentagon has announced an investigation into the matter, with advocates pointing to a need for accountability and adherence to international conventions regarding civilian safety in armed conflict zones.
