TEHRAN — Iran has issued 
formal indictments over the U.S.-Israeli terrorist acts that led to the martyrdom of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, four members of his family, and 168 students and teachers at a school in Minab, Tehran Prosecutor Ali Salehi announced on Saturday.
Salehi confirmed that the indictments were issued after preliminary investigations were completed and domestic and international evidence was examined, with all those responsible for both attacks being prosecuted.
In the case involving Ayatollah Khamenei, the indictment lists participation in “corruption on earth” through a terrorist act. 
Salehi stated that “the operation sought to strike at the structure of governance and forcibly influence the country’s policies,” adding that those who carried out, ordered, or planned the attack bear criminal responsibility.
The indictment also addresses the martyrdom of the Leader’s daughter, daughter-in-law, son-in-law, and 14-month-old grandchild. 
The Tehran prosecutor emphasized that the deaths of women, children, and other civilians cannot simply be described as “casualties” and excluded from the scope of terrorist acts.
Salehi noted that the case could serve as a legal document for Iran to pursue the criminal responsibility of those who ordered and carried out the attacks at the international level.
A separate indictment has been issued over the terrorist act that resulted in the martyrdom of 168 students and teachers at Shajareh Taybeh School in Minab. 
Salehi confirmed that preliminary investigations into that case had likewise been completed, with all those responsible being prosecuted.
Ayatollah Khamenei and four members of his family were martyred on February 28, 2026, during the latest U.S.-Israeli aggression against Iran. On the same day, the U.S. Air Force deliberately targeted Shajareh Taybeh Primary School in Minab with a triple-tap strike.
In the most horrific crime of the war, 168 schoolgirls and schoolboys between the ages of 7 and 12, as well as 26 teachers, were martyred and more than 96 others injured when the school was struck twice by United States missiles as 264 students were attending classes.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi denounced the West’s approach to human rights, saying Western countries have turned the issue into a tool for their own political gain.
