‘Lingering Shock From Tragedy’ Weeks After Minab School Bombing | AJ #shorts

Why It Matters

If confirmed, the strikes and high civilian student casualties raise grave questions about targeting, proportionality and accountability in the campaign, with major implications for international law, civilian protection and regional political fallout.

Summary

Weeks after a deadly strike on a school in Minab, the town remains in mourning as families demand accountability. The video reports the attack occurred on the first day of a campaign of American and Israeli airstrikes and says the school was hit repeatedly, killing at least 156 people—mostly elementary students—along with teachers and a driver. Residents describe ongoing grief and call for justice, while the piece places the incident in a wider wartime toll: hundreds of schools damaged, more than 270 students killed nationwide, and several major universities reportedly targeted. The report names Sharif University of Technology, Shahid Beheshti University, University of Science and Technology and the Technical University of Isfahan among those hit.
