'My daughter is still under the rubble' - Families gather as rescue teams race to find survivors after strike kills at least 160 at Iranian girls' school

"Rescue teams searched through the rubble after an alleged US-Israeli strike killed more than 160 people at a girls' school in Iran's Hormozgan province on Saturday. Footage shows extensive destruction at the school, shattered classrooms strewn with students' bags and books, bulldozers clearing rubble, and distraught families and crowds of locals gathered at the site. "This morning, the Zionist regime committed a new crime with two attacks on the Shajareh Taybeh school in the Minab district. The world must see these images," proclaimed a victim's father. "My daughter Zainab is still under the rubble. I am waiting to reach her, whether I find her alive or martyred." Following the incident, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said that "this brutal act is another black page in a long record of countless crimes committed by the aggressors." "The destroyed building is a primary school for girls in southern Iran. It was bombed in broad daylight while filled with students. Dozens of innocent children were killed at this site alone. These crimes against the Iranian people will not go unpunished," stated Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. There has been no comment from the US or Israeli sides regarding the strike that targeted the school at the time of publication. The United States and Israel had launched a joint attack on Iran on Saturday, with US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledging to 'destroy Iran's missiles'. In response, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced it had launched 'large-scale missile and drone attacks' against Israel, with reports indicating that US bases in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Iraq, and Kuwait were also targeted."
