M004-IRAN FUNERAL NIÑAS ATAQUE COLEGIO
STORY: Mourners in the Iranian city of Minab carried coffins adorned with photographs of young children on Tuesday (March 3) during a funeral procession for victims of a strike on a girls' school.
Trucks transporting the coffins arrived as large crowds gathered in Hormozgan Province, where people held up pictures and waved flags as they walked alongside the vehicles.
The coffins were later brought to the main procession site where funeral prayers were under way.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Monday (March 2) U.S. forces "would not deliberately target a school" after Iranian state media reported over 160 were killed in a strike on a girls' school on the first day of the U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran.
The reported strike took place on a girls' elementary school in the town of Minab in southern Iran on Saturday (February 28), marking the deadliest incident in the U.S. and Israel's war against Iran.
