Trump Rejects U.S. Responsibility for Minab Girls School Strike That Killed More Than 175

A U.S. report discussed by مونت كارلو الدولية said a strike on February 28 hit the Tree of Goodness Elementary School in Minab and occurred concurrently with an American attack on a Revolutionary Guards naval base adjacent to the site, making U.S. responsibility for hitting the school more likely.

The same report said Iranian officials and media put the death toll at least 175 people, mostly children, and described verified videos aired by Iranian media showing searches for survivors under rubble.

By contrast, Reuters reporting cited by ایران اینترنشنال said Donald Trump rejected U.S. responsibility and said, “I don’t think it was our doing.”

Iranian sources cited by ایران اینترنشنال said the March 9, 1404 attack on the Shajarat Tayyiba School occurred simultaneously with the start of U.S. and Israeli strikes and resulted in the deaths of more than 175 students and teachers.

In a Reuters account relayed by ایران اینترنشنال, Donald Trump said it may never be determined who was responsible for the deadly attack on the Minab girls' school and argued he had not seen evidence that the missile belonged to the United States.

The same source quoted Trump saying, “missiles were flying from all sides,” and added that he believed “no one” deliberately targeted the school.

Amnesty International USA’s Amanda Klasing, quoted by Al-Manar TV Lebanon, said, “It’s been four months since the deadliest U.S. airstrike against civilians in recent memory, yet we are no closer to getting answers from U.S. authorities about why this happened and who was responsible.”

Al-Manar TV Lebanon also quoted Klasing saying the U.S. military was responsible for killing over 150 people in an attack with precision-guided Tomahawk missiles on a school packed with children.

The dispute over responsibility is tied to how investigations are handled, with مونت كارلو الدولية saying White House spokesperson Karoline Levit stated that the Defense Department is investigating the incident while Washington and Tel Aviv had not yet claimed responsibility.

Iranian and U.S. positions remain in conflict in the reporting, as ایران اینترنشنال said the Pentagon raised the level of investigations but that none of the initial findings had been formally confirmed.

Al-Manar TV Lebanon framed the consequences as accountability and transparency, quoting Amanda Klasing that “The public and the victims’ families must have transparency and accountability, and families must get truth, justice and reparations.”

The same Amnesty statement quoted by Al-Manar TV Lebanon said the investigation must consider “targeting decisions, precautions taken, and its use of artificial intelligence,” and called for prosecution where evidence supports criminal responsibility.
