Why It Matters
The Iran-US-Israel conflict escalated with a military campaign, affecting regional stability and energy security.
Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in New Delhi on Wednesday for the Brics foreign ministers’ meeting aboard an aircraft carrying a pointed message from Tehran: Minab168. The inscription on the plane references the 168 schoolchildren Iran claims were killed in a US strike on a school in Minab on February 28, underscoring the war’s human toll. [...] The attack on the Shajareh Tayyebeh primary school in Minab, near the Strait of Hormuz, became a symbol of the war’s civilian cost, with victims aged 7-12. The Pentagon is investigating, citing possible faulty intelligence. Araghchi’s visit, amid this fraught context, focuses on energy security and regional stability with India.
