Iran plans to turn university site hit by US-Israeli strikes into museum

03-05-2026 11:36 AM


Ammon News - Iranian authorities plan to turn a bombsite at a university in central Iran into a museum about the impact of US-Israeli strikes, an official said.

"The current damaged site will be preserved as a war museum at the university to remain a document of the country's scientific oppression in history," Isfahan University of Technology head Zafarollah Kalantarion said.

He added that other land had been allocated for the "construction of a new building and provision of advanced equipment" for the university, according to the official IRNA news agency.

Kalanari said initial assessments had put the cost of the damage to the university's buildings and facilities at around $11 million.

US-Israeli strikes hit the institution in Isfahan – among the largest universities in Iran – in March.

Officials have said that the US and Israel have struck more than 30 universities across Iran.
