On 28 February 2026, the first day of the 2026 Iran war, the 'Shajareh Tayyebeh girls' elementary school in Minab in southern Iran was destroyed by a missile strike, killing at least 160 pre-teen students and teachers. According to witness accounts verified by satellite-based analyses, the school was triple tapped by three distinct strikes.
Official narrative
As of March 2026, a targeting error,[1] or Iran did it to itself.[2]
"Multiple reports indicate that investigators are examining whether AI-assisted geospatial tools used in the targeting process may have perpetuated or failed to flag the outdated classification. This is a critical question for the future of targeting law. Machine-learning systems trained on historical data can reproduce historical errors at scale. If the Maven Smart System or a similar tool incorporated legacy DIA target codes without a verification layer, the AI did not create the error—but it may have laundered it into the strike package with a false aura of analytical confidence."[3]
Motives
The Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab is part of a broad network of schools, structurally and administratively affiliated with the IRGC Navy. These schools are classified as nonprofit institutions and are primarily intended to provide educational services to the sons and daughters of members of the IRGC Navy. Admission procedures give priority to the children of military personnel.[4]
Alireza Sanei, Iranian ambassador to Belarus, alleged that the strike on the school resembled satanic rituals allegedly enabled by pedophile American financier Jeffrey Epstein, and that the same forces targeted the Minab school in "some ritual of child sacrifice" meant to bring success to the US-Israeli military operation.[5]
Perpetrators
Iranian media channels named US Navy officers Leigh R. Tate and Jeffrey E. York of the USS Spruance as responsible for the crime.[6][7]
