The deaths follow an attack on girls’ elementary school in Minab, in which more than 160 lost their lives
A strike on a residential area in the Qods suburb of Tehran has killed least two children, local officials have said. An attack on girls’ elementary school in Minab on the first day of the US-Israel war on Iran led to more than 160 losing their lives.
The bombing in Qods also left some 17 people wounded, a Tehran Province emergency services statement on Friday. The injured, ten of whom were women, have been rushed to hospital, it added.
The emergency services have condemned the strike as an “inhumane act” and “crime against civilians,” but did not name the party responsible for it.
Iranian state TV reported several explosions across the capital on Friday, adding that missiles also struck not far from an area in the city center where a major pro-government rally had been taking place.
