Democrats Call for Investigation into Iran School Bombing

US Democratic senators are calling for an 'impartial' Pentagon investigation into the bombing of a school in Minab, Iran.

Iranian authorities reported over 150 children killed. Agence France-Presse (AFP) cannot independently verify the toll or circumstances.

A New York Times investigation suggests the bombing may be due to a US airstrike targeting a nearby Revolutionary Guard naval base.

A video released by Iranian news agency Mehr shows a Tomahawk cruise missile hitting a naval base near a school in Minab on February 28.

Neither the US nor Israel has admitted responsibility. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated the Pentagon is investigating. Donald Trump claimed Iran was responsible.

Democratic senators are demanding a 'full and impartial investigation' by Hegseth, emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability.
