Attack on a girls' school in Iran: Trump says responsibility may never be established

Le président américain Donald Trump He stated on Wednesday that it may never be possible to definitively determine who was responsible for the deadly airstrike that hit a girls' school in Minab, southern Iran, on February 28. The attack, which occurred on the first day of the war between Iran, the United States, and Israel, killed dozens of children and teachers, according to Iranian authorities.

When questioned by reporters in Washington, Donald Trump stated that the circumstances of the tragedy remained difficult to establish. "I don't know if they will ever be able to solve this problem," he said, noting that numerous missiles were being fired in the region at the time of the incident.

The US president also rejected claims that American forces were directly responsible for the attack. "Someone said it was our missile, maybe it wasn't our missile," he stated, adding that he had not seen any evidence to suggest American involvement. "I don't think it was us," he insisted.

In March, however, Reuters revealed that an initial internal investigation by the US military suggested that American forces were likely responsible for the strike. According to this report, the Pentagon suspected the incident might be linked to the use of outdated targeting data. Since then, the investigation has been expanded, but no official findings have been released.

Iranian authorities claimed that the attack killed more than 175 students and staff members at the school. The bombing quickly became one of the most controversial episodes of the conflict, prompting numerous calls for an independent investigation and clarification of responsibility.

As the investigation continues, Donald Trump's statements underscore the uncertainty that still surrounds this tragedy. Several months after the events, the final conclusions of the American investigation are still awaited, while the victims' families demand answers about the exact circumstances of the attack.
