Iranian authorities are planning to turn a bomb site at a university in central Iran into a museum about the impact of US-Israeli strikes, an official says, AFP reports.

“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,” said Zafarollah Kalantari, head of Isfahan University of Technology.

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.
