The Iranian school struck in the war's earliest attacks is now a memorial for children
- A school in Minab, Iran was struck on February 28 in the earliest attacks of the war between the United States and Israel across Iran, with Iranian officials stating more than 100 students were killed.
- The damaged school building remains frozen mid-lesson with desks half buried and ceilings collapsed, now serving as a memorial with photographs of victims lining the site.
- An Associated Press investigation found evidence that at least one U.S. missile hit the school, though the Trump administration has not directly accepted responsibility or released the Pentagon's findings.
- The site has been converted into a memorial, with the school's blue gate still displaying symbols that once welcomed children, now replaced by rows of photographs showing the victims in life and mourning banners.
A school in Minab, southern Iran, struck on February 28 during the earliest attacks of the U.S.-Israel war across Iran, has been transformed into a memorial for the children killed in the strike. Iranian officials reported that more than 100 students died in the attack on the Shajareh Tayyebeh school. The building remains largely unchanged, with classrooms frozen mid-lesson, desks half buried, and ceilings collapsed.
The site now serves as a memorial, with the school's bright blue gate still displaying symbols that once welcomed children—Iran's map, oversized pencils, and portraits of scientific and literary figures. These have been joined by rows of photographs showing the victims as living children at birthday parties and other moments, alongside black mourning banners bearing their faces.
Months after the strike, the Trump administration has not directly accepted responsibility or released the Pentagon's findings, despite an Associated Press investigation that found evidence of at least one U.S. missile hitting the school. The community of Minab has faced renewed attention following a new round of U.S. strikes along Iran's southern coast in recent days, which struck a wedding and other areas.
伊朗战争初期遭轰炸的学校如今成为儿童纪念地
伊朗南部城镇米纳布的一所学校在2月28日美以战争初期遭轰炸后，已被改造成纪念遇难儿童的纪念地。伊朗官员称沙杰雷·泰耶贝学校的轰炸事件中有超过100名学生丧生。该建筑基本保持原状，教室冻结在课堂中断的状态，课桌半埋，天花板坍塌。
该地点现已成为纪念地，学校的蓝色大门仍保留着曾欢迎儿童的标志——伊朗地图、超大铅笔和科学与文学人物肖像。这些标志旁边排列着受害者生前在生日派对和其他时刻的照片，以及印有他们面孔的黑色悼念横幅。
轰炸发生数月后，特朗普政府尚未直接承认责任或公布五角大楼的调查结果，尽管美联社的调查发现了至少一枚美国导弹击中该学校的证据。米纳布社区因近日美国在伊朗南海岸进行的新一轮轰炸而再次受到关注，这些轰炸击中了一场婚礼和其他地区。
