The Iranian school struck in the war’s earliest attacks is now a memorial for children

In Minab, Iran, a school that once welcomed children with bright symbols and portraits has become a memorial for students killed in a tragic attack. On February 28, during the early stages of a war involving the United States and Israel, a strike hit the Shajareh Tayyebeh school, resulting in the deaths of over 100 students. Despite evidence suggesting a U.S. missile was involved, the Trump administration has not taken responsibility. Recently, new U.S. strikes in the area have caused further injuries. The damaged school building may be preserved as a war museum, while a section of the local cemetery honors the victims. The community continues to mourn, with some bodies still missing. QUESTION: How might preserving the school as a museum impact the community and future generations?
