'Will not go unanswered': Iran condemns air strike on girls’ school

Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has condemned the air strike that hit a girls’ primary school in southern Iran, reportedly killing at least 51 people.

“The destroyed building is a primary school for girls,” Araghchi said on X, “bombed in broad daylight when it was packed with young pupils. Dozens of innocent children have been murdered at this site alone.”

He added that “these crimes against the Iranian people will not go unanswered".
