Italian PM Meloni Condemns Iran Schoolgirls' Massacre
On Wednesday, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned what she referred to as the "massacre" of schoolgirls in Minab, southern Iran, following a deadly missile strike. The attack, which occurred during the ongoing Middle East war, has been reported to have killed at least 165 people.
Meloni addressed the Italian Senate, offering her solidarity to the families of the young victims and emphasizing the need for a swift investigation into the tragedy. The Iranian government has accused the United States and Israel of conducting the missile attack, while U.S.
President Donald Trump has placed blame on Tehran. However, Israel has denied any connection to the strike.
The incident took place on the first day of the Middle East war, and independent verification of the casualty toll has not been possible, as reported by AFP.
