US-Israeli strikes have hit more than 30 universities across Iran since the war broke out in late February, Iran’s science minister says.
“To date, more than 30 universities have been directly targeted,” Hossein Simai Sarraf tells reporters during a visit to the Shahid Beheshti University in northern Tehran, which was struck on Friday.
Israel has said it targeted various research and development sites tied to Iran’s nuclear and weapons programs.
