I was a child in Iran, like the girls killed in bombing the U.S. may have caused

On Saturday, Feb. 28th, the U.S. and Israel launched a military operation in Iran, unleashing 2,000-pound bombs on the country's ballistic missile facilities. That same morning, between 10 and 10:45 a.m., a missile struck an all-girls elementary school in Minab, Shiraz. At least 175 children and staff were killed. The U.S. has admitted it was "likely responsible" for the strike. "In one video, a very small child's severed arm is pulled from the rubble," wrote The Guardian in the aftermath of this unspeakable tragedy. "Colorful backpacks covered with blood and concrete dust sit among the ruins. One girl wears a green dress with gingham patches on her pockets and the collar, her form partly obscured by a black body bag. Screams can be heard in the background."
