Tehran has vowed retaliation for the “savage” attack by Israeli and US “aggressors”
Over 100 students have been killed and dozens injured in an Israeli airstrike on a girls’ primary school in the city of Minab, in southern Iran, according to the country’s news agency Tasnim. The attack comes amid ongoing airstrikes on the Islamic Republic by Israel and the US.
Israel launched what it described as a pre-emptive operation against Iranian military and nuclear-related targets on Saturday, saying the strikes were aimed at neutralizing threats posed by Iran. US President Donald Trump later said Washington was joining the operation, citing the failure of nuclear diplomacy as a direct trigger for the renewed bombing.
One of the strikes reportedly targeted an elementary school in the city of Minab, killing at least 108 students and leaving 92 others injured, according to local officials.

In a development that has sent shockwaves through the global military community, Iranian armed forces on Thursday successfully targeted a US Air Force F-35 Lightning II, one of the world's most advanced stealth fighter jets.
It marks a potential turning point in modern aerial warfare and has sparked intense debate about the viability of stealth technology against determined, innovative opponents.
According to military pundits, it’s the first time ever that an F-35 jet has been struck.
The first reports emerged from an open source account, which said an F-35A/B Lightning II had “made an emergency landing” after being hit by an Iranian surface-to-air fire.
“We are aware of reports that a U.S. F-35 aircraft conducted an emergency landing at a regional U.S airbase after flying a combat mission over Iran,” Navy Capt. Tim Hawkins of CENTCOM later said in a statement to Military Times.

Iran has obtained authentic information indicating that the United States and Israeli regime seek to announce a temporary ceasefire in the war with Iran in order to buy time, a report says.
Iran's Jamaran news website reported on Friday that the US-Israeli intention for a one- or two-day ceasefire aims to complete a plan to launch an attack on the southern parts of Iran.
“However, Iran has maintained almost complete dominance over the enemy’s sky and space,” it added.
“The least stop in Iran’s effective attacks on this geography can make it possible for the enemy to reconstruct its radars and defensive [systems] in the occupied territories and US bases in the region,” the report emphasized.
According to the report, the balance of power has changed over the past 48 hours after the striking of an American F-35 stealth fighter by Iranian forces, continuation of the Strait of Hormuz closure and high oil prices.
The enemies have considered all these factors in the ceasefire ...
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that the Islamic Republic will show "ZERO restraint" if its infrastructure is attacked.
"We have intelligence on Israeli plans to strike infrastructure. Once again: ZERO restraint if our infrastructure is attacked," Araghchi wrote in a post on X on Friday.
"We are men and women of principles. Iranians do not sneak attack adversaries while engaged in dialogue. Only when attacked do we powerfully respond," he added.
The warning came as the US and Israel started a fresh round of aerial aggression on Iran on February 28, some eight months after they carried out unprovoked attacks on the country.
Earlier this week, the invading coalition targeted Iran's main gas field, South Pars, in a major escalation. Tehran swiftly responded by targeting Qatar's Ras ......more below
