Repeated Poisonings in Various Cities

Student poisonings are being repeated in various cities.

Following the start of the new year and Nowruz holidays, several schools in Tabriz and Qom have been targeted, poisoning a number of students.

Today, Saturday, the nineteenth of Farvardin 1402, Hajar School in Haftkel county, Saadi elementary school for girls in Urmia, and five schools in Ardabil were again subjected to chemical attacks.

According to the HRANA news agency, 60 students from Hajar School and other students from Saadi School and Ardabil schools were poisoned and hospitalized.

Student poisonings began in Qom schools in November 2022 and continue to this day. Six months later, the Islamic Republic regime still claims to be searching for the causes of the poisonings, while during the Nowruz holidays it took swift action against unveiled women and stationed officials in recreational and tourism centers to prevent anyone without a hijab from entering these facilities. Apparently, the matter of hijab—even if enforced—is more important than the lives of Iranian girls.

So far, not only have the officials of the Islamic Republic taken no measures to reduce public concern and dispel allegations about the poisonings, but their lack of follow-up demonstrates that student poisoning is also part of their crimes against Iranian girls.
