In a post on his X account on Thursday, Larijani reacted to the heinous attack by the United States and the Zionist regime on civilian centers in Iran.
He said that the collective martyrdom of innocent schoolgirls in Minab at a school in southern Iran at the hands of Israeli-American criminals caused the theory of “peace through strength” to be stained with blood.
Addressing US President Donald Trump, Larijani asked whether this was the anthem composed for freedom in Iran.
He further stated that God exposes deceivers by their own hands.
The gruesome attack on schoolchildren in Minab occurred at dawn on February 28, as the US and Israeli regime launched an unprovoked war against Iran by assassinating Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei and top military officials.
A barrage of missiles struck the Shajareh Tayebeh elementary and preschool in Minab, Hormozgan province, killing 165 students and teachers.
The tragedy has sparked widespread mourning across Iran, with public ceremonies and tributes held for the children by people.
