Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi on Tuesday condemned U.S.-Israeli strikes on a girls' elementary school in southern Iran's Minab in a post.
On the social media platform X, Araghchi shared the image of a harrowing aerial photograph showing mass graves being prepared for the victims of the attack, in which he said the bodies of the innocent young girls were "torn to shreds".
The airstrike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls' elementary school in Minab on Saturday left at least 165 people dead, according to Iranian authorities.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has expressed condolences to the families of the victims and the residents of the city. He has condemned the airstrikes, calling them inhumane and barbaric.
The United Nations education agency, UNESCO, said the deadly bombing of the primary school by the U.S. and Israel constitutes a grave violation of humanitarian law.
