The 麻豆社 visits the Iran school where a strike killed 120 children

On February 28th, in the opening hours of the first day of the US-Israel war against Iran, an attack on a school vin the southern city of Minab killed over 120 children. To date, its the deadliest civilian attack during the Iran war. Experts say the school was hit by a precision guided Tomahawk missile - a weapon that neither Israel nor Iran are known to possess. Yet five months on, the US government has not formally accepted responsibility.

We also hear from the 麻豆社鈥檚 State Department Correspondent Tom Bateman about his attempts to get answers from US officials about the school strike.
