Caption: Trump Says Blame For Iran School Strike May Never Be Known. President Donald Trump said it may never be known who was responsible for the deadly strike on a girls’ school in Iran during the opening day of the conflict. Trump said he had seen nothing to suggest the missile was fired by U.S. forces and added, “I don’t think it was us.” The February 28 strike killed more than 175 children and teachers, according to Iranian officials. Reuters previously reported that an initial U.S. military investigation indicated American forces were likely responsible, although the Pentagon has not confirmed any findings. Trump said the investigation is ongoing and argued that missiles were being fired by multiple sides during the conflict. U.S. officials have said Washington would never deliberately target a school, while the strike prompted widespread international condemnation. The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights described the attack as “absolutely horrific.” Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
