A prominent Iranian university was struck in a devastating attack that left 34 people dead, as Tehran accused the United States and Israel of intensifying military operations against its infrastructure.
Iranian officials have vowed to respond "in kind" to what they describe as targeted assaults on civilian and educational facilities. The attack represents a significant escalation in regional hostilities, with Iranian authorities directly implicating former U.S. President Donald Trump in what they call incitement to commit "war crimes."
"We will not stand idly by while our institutions are attacked," an Iranian government spokesperson stated. "Those responsible will face consequences proportionate to their actions."
The bombing has raised international concerns about the potential for broader conflict, as diplomatic channels appear increasingly strained. Analysts note that attacks on academic institutions mark a dangerous new phase in the ongoing tensions between Iran and its adversaries.
Regional observers warn that the situation could deteriorate rapidly without immediate de-escalation efforts from all parties involved.
