US-Israeli strike on girls' school kills dozens of students, Iran says

An Israeli-U.S. airstrike on a girls' school in Minab killed at least 40 students and wounded nearly 50 in a campaign targeting Iran's military capabilities.

  • Yesterday, the U.S. and Israel launched a strike that hit Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab city, Hormozgan province, Iran; IRNA reported 40 people were killed in the attack.
  • Officials described the operation as aimed at Iran's military and intelligence sites, planned with the U.S. after the unsuccessful latest round of nuclear talks.
  • At least 170 female students were reported to be inside the school, and reports suggest at least 45 people were wounded in the strike.
  • The Revolutionary Guard said it fired a `first wave` of strikes targeting Israel and regional U.S. military forces, while U.S. embassies and consulates in Qatar, United Arab Emirates and Israel advised staff to shelter in place.
  • The strikes could rattle global markets, especially if the Strait of Hormuz becomes unsafe, while Iraq and the United Arab Emirates closed airspace and Iran-backed Houthis vowed renewed attacks.
