Caroline Levitt commented on the situation in response to a question about whether there were strikes on the Iranian school. She stated, "As far as we know, this did not happen. The United States does not attack civilian populations, unlike the Iranian regime."
The press secretary also urged journalists to avoid accusations against the United States for alleged strikes on civilian facilities, emphasizing that "American military forces do not conduct such actions."
Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported that they are continuing an investigation regarding the strike on the Iranian school. The agency noted that "there is no evidence" that the Israeli Air Force "conducted any operations in that area at that time."
Since February 28, the USA and Israel have begun a joint operation in Iran. As a result of the strike on the elementary school in Minab, according to Iranian data, 171 people were killed. The funerals took place on March 3 and gathered thousands of residents of Iran. The authorities of the country appealed to the International Committee of the Red Cross, urging them to take measures to protect the civilian population amid the military operation by the USA and Israel.
