American forces were responsible for a strike on an Iranian girls’ school that killed at least 150 students and staff, according to a preliminary assessment by U.S. military investigators.

Two U.S. officials told Reuters that investigators believe the deadly strike on the Shajareye Tayabeh girls’ school in Minab, Hormozgan Province, was launched by American forces after Donald Trump ordered the launch of “major combat operations” against Iran on Saturday.


The sources described the assessment as tentative and said additional evidence could still emerge that might identify another party as responsible.

The school was struck as the U.S. and Israel launched combined attacks across Iran on Saturday as part of a large-scale operation that has killed Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and dozens of top officials.
