As a reminder, on the morning of February 28, the United States and Israel attacked Iran. In retaliation, Iran launched strikes against American bases in the Middle East. As a result of the American-Israeli aggression, Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and several high-ranking Iranian military officials were killed. The American side has so far confirmed the deaths of three of its soldiers. According to the latest reports, an Israeli strike on a girls' school in one of Iran's provinces killed 170 students and their teachers, and wounded dozens more. Armenia has not yet offered condolences to Iran over the death of the Supreme Leader.
