International investigation reveals US 'Tomahawk' missile involvement in Minab school massacre in Iran

International press reports have indicated an accumulation of evidence proving the involvement of a US missile in the horrific massacre that targeted an elementary school in the Iranian city of Minab. Sources indicated that the attack resulted in the martyrdom of 175 children who were inside their classrooms at the moment of the violent explosion.

The investigations were based on video clips published by Iranian agencies clearly showing the moment a 'Tomahawk' cruise missile fell on the area. The footage documented the missile hitting a naval base located in the vicinity of the 'Shajarat Tayyibah' elementary school, leading to massive destruction in the school building, which was crowded with students.

Sources confirmed that the US Army is the only force in the region that possesses and uses long-range 'Tomahawk' missiles. Satellite images and field analyses show that the school was directly and fatally damaged as a result of the explosive pressure and shrapnel emanating from the missile that targeted the adjacent base.

In a previous comment on the incident, former US President Donald Trump denied his country's involvement in killing Iranian children. Trump claimed, in response to journalists' questions, that Iran was responsible for the incident due to what he described as 'inaccuracy' in the use of its military munitions, which was refuted by subsequent technical evidence.

For its part, the independent research team 'Bellingcat' verified the authenticity of the video documenting the airstrike with extreme precision. The analysis showed that the filming was done from a construction site located opposite the targeted base, where the missile was seen falling directly on a medical clinic inside a facility belonging to the Revolutionary Guard.

Reports clarified that the damage was not limited to the medical clinic, but also strongly affected the school adjacent to the naval base wall. Several other buildings within the military facility also suffered precise strikes coinciding with the attack on the school, indicating a widespread and organized military operation.

Technical analyses emphasized that this type of missile is not available in the arsenal of the Israeli occupation army or the Iranian army itself. The massacre coincided with the launch of dozens of missiles of the same type by US Navy warships towards targets inside Iranian territory on February 28th.

'Tomahawk' missiles are characterized by superior technological capabilities, as they can fly up to 1000 miles and hit their targets with extreme precision. These missiles are programmed with complex flight plans before launch, raising questions about how a site next to an elementary school was included in the target bank.

The missile used in the attack is about 20 feet long and carries a warhead with a massive destructive capability equivalent to 300 pounds of 'TNT'. These specifications confirm that the extent of the destruction inflicted on the 'Shajarat Tayyibah' school is entirely consistent with the destructive effects of this strategic American weapon.

Iran did that, as you know they are very inaccurate in using munitions.
