  "account": "Six months following a devastating school attack in Iran's Minab city, parents continue to grapple with the overwhelming grief. Masoumeh Zakeri, a 44-year-old mother, lost her nine-year-old daughter Motahreh in the strike. Motahreh was among at least 155 people, mostly children, killed in the attack. The school remains largely in ruins, with portraits of the deceased lining the rubble. Iran claims two Tomahawk missiles were used, but neither the US nor Israel has officially confirmed responsibility. Rights groups, including Amnesty International, blame the US. Diplomatic efforts to end the war have struggled since the April ceasefire. Zakeri and other parents recount the harrowing moments following the attack and the unbearable silence that now envelops their homes. The school is set to serve as a memorial, and families primarily visit the cemetery where the children are buried.",
  "summary": "They recall the horrors of the Minab school blast following a strike in the opening hours of the US-Israel war with Iran.",
