He added that the Pentagon is investigating the incident, but did not confirm Washington's involvement in the tragedy.

It only gets worse: the United States is talking about a ground operation in Iran

According to experts, a full-fledged invasion will require at least 500,000 soldiers.

The day before, American leader Donald Trump blamed Iran for the attack on a girls' school in the southern city of Minab. The same opinion was expressed by the head of the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth. He made a statement that "only Iran strikes civilians."

On March 6, NBC News reported that representatives of the White House acknowledged the US strikes in the area of the girls' school in Minaba. The attack on an elementary school for girls took place on February 28, the day when the United States and Israel launched a military operation against Iran called "Lion's Roar."

The attacks on the educational institution, which killed at least 170 people, including minors, were carried out using Tomahawk missiles. The farewell ceremony for the dead schoolgirls, attended by thousands of people, took place on March 3.
