U.S. first lady Melania Trump presided over a U.N. Security Council meeting on Monday focusing on children in conflict, one of her signature issues, and acknowledged she was doing so in "challenging times" as the United States has joined Israel in attacking Iran.
Hanging over Monday's meeting was what Iranian state media says was an airstrike that hit a girls' school in southern Iran, killing at least 165 people and wounding dozens more. The Israeli military said it was not aware of strikes in the area. The U.S. military said it was looking into the reports.

Shortly before Monday's session began, Iran's ambassador to the U.N., Amir Saeid Iravani, said it was "deeply shameful and hypocritical" for the U.S. to convene a meeting on protecting children during conflict while launching airstrikes on Iranian cities.
"For the United States, 'protecting children' and 'maintaining international peace and security' clearly mean something very different from what the U.N. Charter provides," he told reporters.
U.N. political chief Rosemary DiCarlo said the world body was aware of the reports of the deaths at the girls' school. She noted the impact the U.S.-Israeli strikes and the Iranian retaliatory strikes was having on children across the region.

what Iranian state media says
Best First Lady ever!
okay now lets shut the d222ed UnitedNazis down ! or at least get it out of USA
It’s always “a girls school.” I’m guessing they use girls as human shields for military targets because they consider females expendable.
All civilians are expendable! By putting them in harms way in the regime’s rationalization, civilians are given an opportunity for martyrdom.
I STILL AM NOT BUYING THE “GIRL’S SCHOOL STORY”
MUSLIMS DO NOT EDUCATE WOMEN
Iran already has admitted that their misfired rocket hit the school. NPR is a day behind on pushing the fake narrative for that story.
Most Muslim countries educate girls; even Iran.
They’re not all Afghanistan.
Melania 2028.
Iranian state media is obviously trying to divide the American people more than they already are. Fueling the protests here.
The mullahs believe girls and women are the same as animals.
In the documentary about her, she covers this issue of improving the world for children. She meets with other women leaders from around the world, including other wives of high-profile male leaders. She wants to make the Internet safer for kids, and conditions in general.
As beautiful as she is, it’s easy to think she is a lightweight; but rather than just be arm candy when she married Trump, she started her own jewelry line and amassed a nest egg of her own. She is family oriented and has always lived with her parent since she brought them over here. They helped raise Barron, who has had no nannies.
Much to admire.
LOL...I’ve been trying to find that one.
