Scene of pain seen in flight
In the flight to Islamabad, children’s bags, shoes and white flowers were kept in the first row. These things were not just symbols, but were an attempt to show that war is not just a political or military matter—it directly impacts the lives of ordinary people, especially children. In the picture shared on social media, Ghalibaf was seen looking at these things carefully. He wrote in the post, “My partner in this flight #Minab168.” The message quickly went viral and sparked an emotional reaction among people.
Images from a plane carrying Iran’s delegation to US-Iran talks in Islamabad show seats filled with photos and belongings of victims of the Minab school strike.
