It has recently become newsworthy due to a reported missile strike that occurred on the first day of a recent conflict in Iran. According to reports, the strike resulted in the deaths of 168 schoolgirls. The UN's human rights chief has called on the US to conclude its investigation into the incident and publish its findings. Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown cited the bombing of Shajareh Tayyebeh school as a key example in his argument for the creation of an international criminal court for crimes against children, emphasizing that schools should be protected during conflicts.
