The war between the US and Israel and Iran began with massive attacks on urban centres, the killing of the country's ultimate leader and his family, and the brutal killing of more than 160 children in the Minab primary school. With the advent of further information on the assassination, the discussion moved from whether the United States had committed this cruelty, to how and why.

The attack on Shajarah Tayyebeh's girls' school on February 28 occurred on the first day of the American-Israeli attack on Iran, named by U.S. president Donald Trump's administration "Operation Epic Furia", and by the judaic state "Operation Rink Lion".

Eyewitnesses reported that at least 2 missiles hit the school in a short time, killing over 170 people, almost all of whom were students. 2 missiles are believed to have hit empty warehouses adjacent to the school.

Video footage from the school shows scenes of demolition after the attack as paramedics comb the debris and parents search for their missing children.

The planet was horrified to see the confirmation of preliminary recordings and the publication of moving photographs of children's graves being prepared. The UN stated that "the attack on school is simply a serious attack on children, education and the future of the community as a whole".

What did the United States and Israel say about the attack?

American and Israeli officials immediately presented conflicting denials and explanations of the attack. Israeli Ambassador to Australia Hillel Newman claimed on 2 March that the school "was actually utilized by the [Iranian muslim Revolutionary defender Corps] and another forces", and its sources indicated that the building "was not then utilized as a school but alternatively as the office of the muslim Revolutionary defender Corps and government building".

Israel Defence Force spokesperson (IDF) Nadav Shoshani later said that his staff "checked it repeatedly and found no connection between the IDF and what happened at that school."

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and White home press secretary Karoline Leavitt agreed that the United States was not attacking civilians. "I would like to inform you about accusing the United States of attacking civilians due to the fact that this is not something that these armed forces are doing," Leavitt told journalists on 4 March, after which he accused them of surrendering to the Iranian “propaganda”.

When asked about the March 7 attack, Trump said that he felt that “it was done by Iran... we believe Iran made it because, as you know, their ammunition is very inaccurate. There is no accuracy at all.’

Hegseth did not support Trump's claims by informing reporters that the Pentagon was investigating the incident. However, he insisted that "the only organization attacking civilians is Iran".

How did Iran react?

Iran blamed the massacre on the United States and Israel. respective elder officials in Tehran called the bombing a “war crime” and announced revenge. “Calling this a specified “war crime” is tragically essential to surrender all wickedness and depravity of this cruelty,” said Minister of abroad Affairs Esmaeil Baqaei on 4 March.

Iran's Ambassador to Belarus Alireza Sanei described the attack as "a ritual of kid sacrifice" by the US and Israel.

The Iranian abroad Ministry has published shocking pictures of hundreds of graves prepared for victims of the attack. "It's graves dug for more than 160 innocent girls who died as a consequence of American-Israeli primary school bombing," wrote abroad Minister Abbas Araghchi on portal X. "Their bodies were torn to shreds. This is the reality of the “save” promised by Trump. From Gaza to Minab, innocent murdered in cold blood.”

A movie with Tomahawk that changed everything

The video released on 8 March and verified by many press agencies and analysts provided the most convincing evidence that the US was behind the attack. The video shows a maneuvering rocket with a profile matching American Tomahawk hitting the building next to the school.

At the time of the school's impact, smoke was rising, suggesting that the bullet was at least the second of the 4 that hit the area.

"The double American #Tomahawk rocket that killed 168 Iranian angels in the city of #Minab" wrote Baqaei in a post on X, sharing footage of the attack and photos of bullet debris containing American production components. "An inexcusable, gross war crime that cannot stay unpunished".

When asked about the recording, Trump doubled his firm denial and claims of Iran's involvement, claiming that Tomahawk missiles are "sold and utilized by another countries" and that Iran "also has respective Tomahawks".

"But whether it's Iran or individual else... The fact that Tomahawk is very generic is sold to another countries, but this is presently being investigated" – he continued.

The BGM-109 Tomahawk Land Attack rocket missile entered service in 1983, 3 years after the United States broke relations with Iran following the muslim Revolution. It is utilized exclusively by the United States and a fistful of American allies: Australia, Japan, the Netherlands and Britain.

What did the fresh York Times uncover about the attack investigation?

Pentagon investigators have already confirmed that the United States carried out the attack, reported the “New York Times” on March 11, citing anonymous military representatives. The school was built on the site of the erstwhile muslim Revolutionary defender Corps building, and investigators claim that the officers of the Central Command of the United States were based on "obsolete mark data" from the Defence Intelligence Agency, which continued to classify the school building as part of the military complex, despite being converted into a school over a decade ago.

There were clear traces of civilian use, including a sports field, children's masonry and brightly painted walls, visible on satellite photos taken almost a decade ago. The school besides had a website that operated during the bombing.

The White home inactive hasn't confessed. "As he admits the “New York Times” in his article, the investigation is inactive ongoing," Leavitt said in a statement.

Did artificial intelligence choose a school in Minab as the mark of the attack?

The Pentagon uses Claude, an extended language model created by Anthropic, a company specializing in artificial intelligence, to identify and analyse possible targets for military attacks. This cooperation was the subject of utmost controversy, and Trump broke government contracts with Anthropic in February due to the company's refusal to usage Claude in mass home surveillance or full autonomous weapons. Anthropic's contract with the Pentagon does not expire until September.

According to the Times, investigators believe Claude's engagement in the attack on the school is "little likely". Instead, they think the attack was a consequence of human error.

Claude reportedly played a key function in planning and conducting an American raid on Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro in January and in any of the first U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran on 28 February.

A spokesperson for the Russian MFA Maria Zacharova condemned these atrocities, accusing the US and Israel of “the cruelty, cynicism and dehumanization”. The attack was "irresponsible and reckless," she stressed, calling the incidental an infringement of global and humanitarian law.

Russia abstained in the UN safety Council on a proposal condemning the Iranian attacks on US bases in the Gulf States, not to mention the attack on Minab. According to Russia's permanent typical to the UN, Vasily Nebenzia, the proposal suggested that "Tehran, of his own free will and of sick will, carried out an unprovoked attack on arabian states".
