US Senator seeks Trump's accountability over Iran school strike

US Senator Raphael Warnock has demanded accountability from President Donald Trump over the missile strike on a girls' school in the southern Iranian city of Minab that killed 170 students.

Warnock announced this in a post on social media platform X. He stated, "Nations whose leaders can so easily dismiss the deaths of children need a moral reckoning. Child killing or child death is unacceptable for any reason. We must never forget that Iranian children are also God's children."

On February 28, the first day of the Iran-US-Israel war, a missile struck a girls' school in Minab, killing at least 170 students.

Following intense domestic and international criticism of President Trump and his administration over the school attack, Trump claimed that US forces did not fire any missile at the Iranian school and that Iran's defence forces were responsible for the Minab school tragedy.

However, investigations have revealed that a Tomahawk missile struck the school. Tomahawks are US-made missiles, and Iran's defence forces do not possess them.

After this information emerged, Trump said, "I don't know anything about it."
