On 28 February 2026, a girls' elementary school in Minab, of Hormozgan province in southern Iran by the name of Shajareh Tayyebeh was struck and destroyed during its class time as part of the 2026 US–Israel war against Iran. It was allegedly destroyed by three American–Israeli rockets. According to Iranian state media, 168–180 were dead, mainly students. The Minab school attack is the deadliest airstrike during the Iran war.
Investigations by The New York Times, NPR and CBC News have come into conclusion that the United States was likely responsible for the attack. UNESCO, Iranian government, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, many human rights organisations and activists have condemned the strike. Malala Yousafzai also condemned the strike.
