U.N.-backed experts cite possible U.S. war crimes in Iran, including a school attack
Middle East3 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported1h ago
Human rights experts commissioned by the United Nations' top human rights body have stated they found reasonable grounds to believe the United States committed war crimes during strikes in Iran. The allegations specifically include an attack on a school located in the southern Iranian city of Minab, as well as at least one other strike.
The fact-finding mission that produced these findings was created in 2022 by the U.N. Human Rights Council. It is chaired by jurist Sara Hossain of Bangladesh and consists of a panel of independent experts.
