Sky News reporter James Matthews0:04confronted Defense Secretary Pete0:06Hegseth during a Senate hearing asking0:08whether the United States is hiding the0:10truth about a school bombing that killed0:12156 people in Iran, 120 of them0:14children. The attack hit Shajare Tayebah0:17Primary School in Minab, Iran on0:19February 28th. A Sky News open-source0:22investigation identified a US Tomahawk0:24cruise missile as the weapon. 156 people0:27were killed inside that school. Students0:29and teachers alike. 120 children, 260:32teachers. The scale of the civilian0:34death toll has drawn international0:36outrage with 25 Senate Democrats now0:38demanding the Pentagon release its full0:39investigation findings. A US official0:41told the Associated Press that a0:43preliminary inquiry confirmed American0:45responsibility, but the administration0:47has not formally accepted blame.0:49President Trump continues to deny US0:51involvement suggesting Iran or someone0:53else may have fired the missile despite0:55the investigation identifying a US0:57Tomahawk. The most damning detail, an1:00analyst had identified the building as a1:01school 7 years before the strike. That1:04information was never passed to target1:06developers. A security insider told Sky1:08News the bombing was caused by human1:10error and the Trump administration had1:12previously cut staffing at the Civilian1:14Protection Center of Excellence reducing1:16the very unit meant to prevent this kind1:18of tragedy. That was the question put1:19directly to Secretary Hegseth. He1:21refused to admit responsibility. Senator1:24John Ossoff also pressed Hegseth on past1:26Iran war claims and Hegseth again1:28declined to answer whether his previous1:30statements have been accurate. 156 dead1:33inside a school, 120 children, an1:35investigation identifying a US weapon,1:38an internal inquiry confirming1:39responsibility, a president denying it,1:42and a defense secretary unwilling to1:44answer whether the truth is being1:45hidden. The victims' families in Minab1:47are still waiting for accountability.Soma makalaMfuatano wa matukio ya habariHeyDexVideo fupi ↗
