A U.S.-Israeli attack reportedly targeted the Shahid Khomeini Boys’ School at dawn on Monday in the city of Khomein in Iran’s Markazi province, according to Iran’s Fars news agency. The outlet published several photos showing heavy damage to part of the building.
Meanwhile, the Mehr news agency reported in a post on Telegram that a school in the city of Khomein in the Iranian province of Markazi was struck, leaving five people dead and seven others injured.
The report added that several houses around the facility were also damaged.
In a separate post on Telegram, the Iranian Red Crescent Society shared the same photos previously published by Fars with the caption: “Airstrike on a school in Khomein.”
No further details were immediately available.
Regional escalation has raged since Israel and the U.S. launched joint attacks on Iran on Feb. 28, killing so far around 1,300 people, including then-Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
Tehran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, along with Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries, where it says are targeting “U.S. military assets.”
