Fifteen students at Etrat Technical School in southern Izeh were hospitalized on Monday due to carbon monoxide poisoning, Iranian media reported.
The incident follows a recent fatal carbon monoxide leak in Izeh that killed a security guard.
In a separate incident on Friday, more than 50 students at a secondary school in Shahin Dezh, West Azerbaijan province, were hospitalized with symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning.
These incidents have raised concerns about the safety of heating systems in Iran’s schools and public buildings.
