AI Summary

medium article 3 min

Following a deadly attack on an Iranian elementary school in Minab on February 28, 2026, that killed over 170 people, mostly children, reports have emerged alleging US military involvement. A preliminary Department of Defense investigation, according to the New York Times, suggests the US military was behind the strike. President Trump has given conflicting statements, initially blaming Iran for the bombing. He later claimed to have no knowledge of the details, even after the emergence of evidence indicating a US Tomahawk missile was used. Despite calls for a probe, Trump has neither confirmed nor denied US responsibility, even though the attack has killed at least 1,300 people, according to Iranian officials.
