Trump Says No One Intentionally Carried Out Minab Attack as February 28 Probe Continues
1 articles · Updated · DER SPIEGEL International Edition · Jul 1
Summary
Donald Trump said this week that no one intentionally carried out the February 28 attack in Minab and that investigations into responsibility are still underway.
Iran has accused the United States of striking a school, while Trump had initially suggested Iran itself was behind the attack — a scenario experts cited by the report consider highly unlikely.
DER SPIEGEL said it reconstructed the Minab events using geolocated videos and images plus Iranian media and institutional sources, as reporting from inside Iran remains heavily restricted.
The unresolved strike adds to broader legal scrutiny of US and Israeli airstrikes on Iran, with many legal experts already arguing those operations violated international law.
