A US military investigation into a blast at an elementary school in Minab, a city in Iran’s southern Hormozgan province, is “complex” because the school was located on an active Iranian cruise missile site, US Central Command chief Admiral Brad Cooper told Congress on Tuesday.

Pesky facts ...

There is much collateral damage in any war.
It is always a tragedy when children are slain in war or anytime. That speaker did not include your information about WHY Trump would ever even consider authorizing our bombing in that area?

As you have explained, it was done because the school was located on an active Iranian cruise missile site.
That mournfully enraged speaker could must know this as well, but for unstated reasons, chose to leave that part out.

The higher-ups in the Iranian regime didn’t let their kids go to school that day.

Uh, irgc killed way more than US attacks. No problem there? Iran fully supported Oct 7th IIRC. Is that okay? Cooper is correct.

If this did happen, what was under the school children?

And probably should say that the missile site was located at a school, to be more accurate with regard to the law of armed conflict.

“Pesky facts…”

Isn’t this the same Iran who made women and children stand on bridges so they wouldn’t be bombed?

Muslims have a long history of hiding troops and arms among childrens’ and medical facilities or actually hitting sites like this with their own misfired weapons. This sound like that.
