The so-far unexplained illnesses have affected hundreds of schoolgirls in recent months and officials believe the girls may have been poisoned and have blamed Tehran’s enemies
Worried parents protested in Iran’s capital Tehran and other cities on Saturday over a wave of suspected poison attacks that have affected schoolgirls in dozens of schools, according to Iranian news agencies and social media videos.
Sickness affected more than 30 schools in at least 10 of Iran’s 31 provinces on Saturday. Videos posted on social media showed parents gathered at schools to take their children home and some students being taken to hospitals by ambulance or buses. Similar protests were held in two other areas in Tehran and other cities including Isfahan and Rasht, according to unverified videos.
The United Nations human rights office in Geneva called on Friday for a transparent investigation into the suspected attacks and countries including Germany and the United States have voiced concern.
