Minab School Airstrike Civilian Casualties

A precision airstrike on February 28 hit an elementary school in Minab, Iran, resulting in at least 175 civilian casualties, many of them children. The strike occurred simultaneously with attacks on an adjacent Iran===Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps naval base. Evidence assembled by The New York Times, including satellite imagery and official statements, strongly suggests that United States forces were the most likely perpetrators, possibly due to 'target misidentification.' Both the United States===White House and the United States===United States Department of Defense have stated that an investigation is underway, while Israel denied involvement in that specific area. The incident raises serious questions about adherence to international law and could escalate the ongoing conflict between Iran, the United States, and Israel.
