Chemical attack on schools using drones

New reports of serial poisonings suggest chemical attacks on schools using drones.

It has been about 3 months since the serial poisonings in girls' schools. In the past months, this issue had not been made public, but after it became public, the severity of these poisonings in schools increased, to the point that we have witnessed poisoning of students in schools in different regions in most provinces every day.

A report published on social media from the city of Shiraz indicates a chemical attack on schools using a drone.

A student from Shiraz said: "I am only 14 years old. When I woke up in the morning, I kissed my mother before going to school because I was afraid that this would be my last kiss on her cheeks. When I got to school, a few hours later I noticed a smell and we were crying. I was afraid that I would lose my friends or even not be able to hug my family anymore. The interesting thing was that in this situation, the principal and deputy principal of the school were thinking about the lack of hijab instead of the students' health and were saying to wear the veils because the authorities would come to the school from the office. Then they lied and said that nothing had happened and not to call the emergency services. They didn't even allow us to call our families, but the teachers called the emergency services because we were all in such a bad mood."

Schools in Kohenjan, Fars Province, were also attacked with chemicals. A citizen journalist announced on social media that one of his relatives lives in Kohenjan. When I contacted him about the chemical attack on the school there, he initially denied any knowledge, but after a few hours he called me and informed me that 18 people had been poisoned, that they were in very serious condition and had been taken to Sarostan Hospital by ambulance. He continued that the school door had been locked from behind. Unlike usual, no object had been thrown into the school, but a drone had been seen from a great height above the school spraying something in the school.

I contacted a familiar principal at a school in Shiraz where the poisoning had also reached, and he also stated that during recess, when the students were in the schoolyard, a drone flying high above the school sprayed something like rain on the students' heads, which had an effect when it landed on their clothes. The principal also said that because the teaching staff and I were in the office during recess, we were not poisoned. It seems that this is especially done during recess when everyone is in the schoolyard.

Students from several schools in the city of Rasht also suffered from poisoning simultaneously.

This incident reminds the Iranian people of the news a few years ago that children were being killed with deadly mustard gas in Syria. Unfortunately, this phenomenon was carried out with the consultation and knowledge of the highest level of IRGC commanders in Syria, and in their eyes it was a normal thing.

But the Islamic Republic, as usual, always tries to shift the blame with lies and various scenarios and blame it on the hostile and enemy people themselves. As the deputy political, security and social affairs officer of the Qazvin governorate stated after the serial poisonings of students in this city: "Poisoning in schools is not caused by dangerous toxic substances, and no external factor is involved in this. Whatever happened was caused by the students themselves."

The Islamic Republic regime is so afraid of women and even female students that it has attributed the crimes committed by itself and its agents to the students. According to a statement released by the Minister of Interior, there are several basic points about these incidents, one of which is the students themselves. They have taken such actions because of the games on their phones. The students have taken these actions with the aim of adventure and mischief during their teenage years. In many cases, it has also been determined that nothing actually happened and that only the intense psychological atmosphere has led to the fear of the students and their families.

The Interior Minister's remarks were published at a time when more than 15 provinces and a large number of students, whose exact statistics are not yet available, have been poisoned. This happened while they were in the classroom, and in many cases, the classroom and school doors were locked and students were not allowed to leave.

Queen Farah Pahlavi also issued a statement on March 4, 2018, regarding the poisoning of female students, which was posted on social media yesterday. In the statement, she stated: "The horrific tragedy of the chain of poisonings in girls' schools that has spread to various cities in recent weeks is a great pain for us Iranians. The Velayat-e-Faqih regime is showing the world new aspects of its filthy nature, a face that the late Shah, with complete insight, described as a "great horror" 44 years ago."

By committing these crimes against children, adolescents, and especially women, the Islamic Republic government and its agents are only bringing forward the time of their downfall.
