Hawzah News Agency- Within a week of the strike, the first two stages of a “battle damage assessment” focused on answering basic questions including whether the strike hit and damaged the intended target had been completed, indicating that the US was responsible for striking the Shajareh Tayyiba school in Minab, the sources said.
The delay in completing the investigation has fueled outrage from lawmakers on Capitol Hill who have not yet seen the investigative reports despite repeatedly demanding the Pentagon turn over all relevant materials.
“More than four months after the strike, and after the reported submission of the investigation in April, Congress and the American people still have not received the Department’s investigation and findings. There is no justification for withholding an unclassified accounting of what happened, what went wrong, and what the Department is doing to prevent recurrence,” some two dozen Democratic senators wrote in a recent letter to Hegseth and CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper, demanding information about the investigation.
