U.S. Tomahawk Hit Naval Base Beside Iranian School, Video Shows
Source: NYT
A newly released video adds to the evidence that an American missile likely hit an Iranian elementary school where 175 people, many of them children, were reported killed.
The video, uploaded on Sunday by Irans semiofficial Mehr News Agency and verified by The New York Times, shows a Tomahawk cruise missile striking a naval base beside the school in the town of Minab on Feb. 28. The U.S. military is the only force involved in the conflict that uses Tomahawk missiles.
A body of evidence assembled by The Times including satellite imagery, social media posts and other verified videos indicates that the Shajarah Tayyebeh elementary school building was severely damaged by a precision strike that occurred at the same time as attacks on the naval base. The base is operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.

The video of the strike, which was first reported by the research collective Bellingcat, was independently verified by The Times. We compared features visible in the footage to new satellite imagery captured days after the strikes in Minab.

(97,129 posts)Donnie said it was Iran the other day...insisted that it was Iran because they don't have the sophisticated systems that we do! He said ours are far superior to theirs and are fired with 100% precision. We know exactly what we are hitting. Oh, then there was the double tap which was icing on the cake and was meant to kill all survivors and first responders.
It was a precision strike.
We murder close to 200 innocents.
That is a war crime.
