Missiles fired by US, Israel hit two schools near Tehran: Iranian media

"Missiles fired by the United States and Israel have hit two schools in the town of Parand, southwest of Tehran, Iran's semiofficial Fars news agency has reported. The agency shared photos of damage and debris in what appeared to be a classroom and said several nearby residential units also sustained damage in the attack on Thursday."

"Iranian authorities put the final death toll from the Minab attack at 165 people, most of them girls ages seven to 12. At least 95 other people were wounded in the attack. As the images of the carnage spread on social media platforms, Israeli and US authorities sought to distance themselves from the attack."

"An analysis by Al Jazeera's digital investigations unit found that the school had been clearly separate from an adjacent military site for at least 10 years. The investigation also showed that the strike pattern raises fundamental questions about the accuracy of intelligence information on which the bombing was based."

Missiles attributed to the United States and Israel hit two schools in Parand, southwest of Tehran, causing damage to classrooms and nearby residential areas. This attack occurred six days after a strike on a girls' school in Minab that killed 165 schoolgirls and staff, marking the deadliest single attack during the conflict. Iranian authorities reported most victims were girls aged seven to twelve, with 95 others wounded. US and Israeli officials denied responsibility or claimed the site was a military base. Al Jazeera's investigation determined the school had been clearly separate from any adjacent military facility for at least ten years, raising questions about intelligence accuracy underlying the bombing decisions.
