The White House has called for a “credible and independent investigation” into Iran’s recent poisoning wave. Those responsible must be held accountable, White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday. The poisoning of schoolgirls in Iran is “unheard of”. If the girls were poisoned for trying to get an education, it would be “shameful and unacceptable”. “Women and girls everywhere have a fundamental right to education,” says Jean-Pierre.
The first cases of the mysterious poisoning were reported in November. The government of Iran assumes targeted attacks. Girls’ schools are almost exclusively affected. Schoolgirls were treated in hospitals across the country. Parents and relatives are outraged and angry, and there is still no official explanation. They accuse the authorities of failure and blame them. Doctors speak of gas poisoning. (sda/dpa)
