A memorial event was held on April 6, 2026 in Iran to mourn the students of an elementary school, who were killed in a missile strike. The strike hit the school in the southern Iranian city of Minab on February 28, killing more than 175 students and teachers.

These students, aged 7 to 12, died in the bombing. With their children buried beneath the rubble, parents wailed in despair. Across the world, people have been asking the question: Who bombed the school?

According to UN statistics, the world today faces the largest number of armed conflicts since World War II, with civilian deaths reaching their highest levels in decades. When conflicts break out, children often bear the brunt. Today, one in five children globally, a total of 473 million, lives in or has fled from conflict zones.

According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the Red Cross Society of China has decided to provide USD 200,000 in emergency humanitarian aid to the Iranian Red Crescent Society in a bid to support and console the parents of the deceased students.
