Trump officials scrapped Pentagon blueprint to avoid civilian war casualties before Iran strikes, report says

7. I want to know why everyone calls it a "girls' school" when (at the last tally I've seen)

There were slightly more boys killed than girls.

That's consistent with how most media seems to be referring to the deaths now ("mostly children" rather than "mostly girls" )

ETA: Here are two tallies - I've seen a third with a 59-48 (ish split). I can't find that again.

On March 3, Mehdi Keshtdar, head of the Judiciary-affiliated Mizan News Agency, stated that 110 students had been killed in the attack—66 boys and 54 girls. On the same day, the Iran newspaper, citing Minab Governor Mohammad Radmehr, published a handwritten list of victims that included 44 boys and 76 girls.

I did find a non-answer that explains why it is being called a girls' school (although the article itself calls it a children's school) - Iranian officials are emphasizing that it is a girls' school. But there apparently has been no explanation as to why there were so many boys present at a girls' school.

Neither account clarified why or how such a large number of boys were reportedly inside a girls’ school during the early hours of the morning. In Iran, schools are strictly segregated by gender, making it unlikely that the boys were even preschool-aged - particularly given that Shajareh Tayyibeh schools are considered to follow more conservative religious standards.
