A look at evidence linking U.S. to Iranian school strike

Season 2026 Episode 53 | 6m 53s

The U.S. is investigating an explosion at a school next to an Iranian navy base in the city of Minab. Iran says the strike killed more than 150 people, mostly schoolgirls. A U.S. official briefed on the initial review tells PBS News that the strike was likely American. Nick Schifrin looks at videos and satellite images and speaks to experts on what appears to be the deadliest strike of the war.
