Yerevan Muslim Community Gathers to Remember Minab Martyred Students

IQNA – In a poignant display of cross-border solidarity, members of Armenia’s Muslim community and local students filled the Blue Mosque on March 23 to hold a memorial for the martyred pupils of Minab girls' school in southern Iran.

The memorial ceremony was held at the Blue Mosque in Yerevan in memory of the martyred students of Minab girls' school, with the participation of pupils, students, teachers, Iranian scholars, and others.

The event, held under the title "No to war and No killing of children," featured a candlelight vigil and a flower-laying ceremony.

During the event, those present expressed their solidarity with the grieving families and paid tribute to the memory of the innocent victims.

A US missile strike on the first day of the ongoing US-Israeli aggression against Iran targeted the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ school in Minab, killing 165 innocent students as well as several teachers and parents on February 28.
