TEHRAN, March 3 (Bernama-MNA) -- The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) condemned a deadly missile strike that destroyed a girls’ primary school in Iran’s southern city of Minab.

The Mehr News Agency reported that UNESCO in a statement on social media, said that the Israeli-American bombing on Saturday killed at least 150 people and wounded nearly 100 others, with many students being among the victims.

The agency warned that schools are protected spaces under humanitarian law, stressing that “attacks against educational institutions endanger students and teachers and undermine the right to education.”
