Fatal strike on school in Minab, Iran, under investigation

On February 28, a school in Minab, Iran, was struck during a military operation conducted by the United States and Israel against regional targets. Iranian officials and state media report at least 150 to 175 deaths, with a significant number of children among the casualties. The incident occurred simultaneously with attacks on an adjacent naval base operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). Evidence, including satellite imagery and video footage, suggests the school was hit by a precision strike. U.S. officials, speaking anonymously, have indicated that military investigators are examining whether American forces were responsible for the strike. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that the Department of War is investigating the matter. Currently, no party has officially claimed responsibility, and the death toll remains subject to independent verification due to limited access to the site.
