Press TV – May 25, 2026
The United States proved its utter disregard for human life and international law by carrying out a deliberate and barbaric missile strike on a civilian sports hall in the city of Lamerd in Fars Province during the 40-day war against Iran, martyring 24 innocent Iranians and injuring over 130 others.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei revealed the harrowing details of this American war crime after holding a meeting with Dr. Mousa Mousavi, the Member of Parliament for Mehr and Lamerd.
The assault took place on the afternoon of Saturday, February 28, the very same day US Tomahawk missiles massacred 168 schoolchildren at the Shajareh Tayyibeh School in Minab.
According to the briefing, American forces fired Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM) at a residential neighborhood in Lamerd, directly hitting a sports hall filled with civilians, including teenage volleyball players, women, men, and a helpless two-year-old girl.
The “airburst” warheads exploded in mid-air, raining down a lethal storm of 180,000 high-velocity tungsten pellets that tore through everything in their path with ruthless efficiency.
There is no longer any doubt that this was not an accident, not “collateral damage,” but a premeditated decision by the US regime to test its new weapon system on Iranian civilians in a residential area.

Such a cold-blooded act constitutes a clear and despicable war crime, Baghaei stated firmly.
He added that those who ordered and executed this massacre must be brought before competent courts of law and held fully accountable for their crimes against humanity.
The Iranian nation grieves its martyred pure-hearted children, promising young athletes, and ordinary citizens whose only sin was living proudly under the flag of the Islamic Republic.
“The Iranian nation will never forget its martyred sons and daughters. We will neither forget nor forgive this crime,” Baghaei stated.
The criminal US-Israeli aggression against Iran began on February 28 with airstrikes that assassinated senior Iranian officials and commanders, including the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei. The US also killed 168 children and teachers in airstrikes on the Minab School in southern Iran on the first day of the war.
Iranian Armed Forces responded by launching daily missile and drone operations targeting locations in the Israeli-occupied territories as well as US military bases and assets across the region.
Iran also shut down the Strait of Hormuz to its enemies and their allies following the unprovoked aggression.
On April 8, forty days into the war, a Pakistan-brokered temporary ceasefire between Iran and the US took effect and was later extended unilaterally by Washington.

“US war criminals massacred 24 Iranian civilians in Lamerd sports hall on February 28” — what else would one expect from the jew-S of A???
168? Wasn’t it 175? Some might say being unable to count the number killed would make it suspicious, but that would be racist. And, of course, this comment will be cancelled.
“Schools” always get “attacked” in every “war”. In the jewkraine, jewlensky claimed a school was “bombed” by the big bad russians on day one by tossing some brand new cuddly toys on the floor and knocking a hole in the wall of the non-school building with a jcb. The iranians claim 175/180/172/168 were killed in a girl’s school, which would have to be a girl’s school, because they segregate their children remember. Women’s libbers will have a field day. Now the russians are saying 21 were killed by jewlensky, again mostly girls, because that makes your heart bleed more. They say it “was the last straw”. 8,000 civilians slaughtered when the jewkrainians invaded russia for two months was ok, but 21 schoolgirls was too much. How many of those 8,000 were schoolgirls? The jewkranians lost 75,000 press-ganged “soldiers” to kill those 8,000.
They’re all the same people. All doing the same thing.
Looks like one of them useless tomowhawks blew up the aluminum door and siding to some old metal storage building. Wow, probably a million kids died in there. The “war” rages on.
Unless your country is being attacked ALL acts of aggression of one country against another should be considered a war crime.

Israel’s proposed ambassador to Britain ‘to be charged with fraud’
Story by Melanie Swan • 14h •Israel’s proposed ambassador to Britain is set to be charged with fraud in a move likely to end his chances of ever taking up the post.
Checking his past criminal record has revealed some worries
Tzachi Braverman, Benjamin Netanyahu’s former chief of staff, could be charged with fraud, breach of trust and obstruction of justice, Israel’s attorney general said. Yet alone assisting in the deaths of thousands in Gaza etc. War crimes would immediately disbar him
The allegations stem from the so-called “Bibileaks” affair, an investigation into how highly classified Israeli military intelligence was allegedly sold by him and published by Bild, the German newspaper, in September 2024.
Mr Braverman was appointed as the Jewish state’s next ambassador to the UK last September but has not yet taken the post because of the damaging investigations.
The publication of intelligence was widely interpreted as supporting Mr Netanyahu’s argument that Hamas, rather than Israel, was responsible for blocking a deal to free hostages abducted during the October 7 attacks.
The document reportedly suggested that military pressure, rather than negotiations, offered the best prospect of securing their release
But israel was prepared for the jewish hostages to be killed , to further their cause and bombed the tunnels where jewish captives were being held
The state attorney’s office said on Tuesday that Gali Baharav-Miara, the attorney general, and Amit Aisman, the state attorney, intend to charge Mr Braverman with selling the info and breach of trust, as well as obstruction of justice, subject to a pre-indictment hearing .Entitled to hearing
Under Israeli law, senior public officials are entitled to such a hearing before prosecutors decide whether to file formal charges
The ongoing criminal investigation had already delayed his ambassadorial appointment. With prosecutors now moving toward an indictment, political observers believe it is highly unlikely he will ever assume the role.
The epstein spy files show the UK was heavily targeted
