US-Iran Minab School Missile Strike

A girls' school in Minab, southern Iran, was struck by a missile on February 28, resulting in the deaths of at least 170 people, mostly children. New footage and independent analysis suggest the strike was carried out by a US Tomahawk missile, a weapon not possessed by Iran or Israel. Top Democratic senators in the United States have called for a thorough and impartial investigation into the incident, expressing horror at the civilian casualties and scrutinizing Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth's comments on loosening rules of engagement. US President Donald Trump has, however, blamed Iran for the attack. Iranian officials accuse the United States and Israel of the strike and report extensive damage to civilian infrastructure. The United Nations experts have condemned the attack as a grave assault on children.
