March 11 (UPI) -- A group of senators sent a letter to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth demanding answers about the bombing of a school in Iran.
A school for girls in Minab, near a naval base, was hit Feb. 28 on the first day of airstrikes. Between 165 and 180 children, teachers and parents were killed.
"There must be a swift investigation into the strikes on this school and any other potential U.S. military actions causing civilian harm, and the findings must be released to the public as soon as possible, along with any measures to pursue accountability," the group of senators wrote in the letter to Hegseth.
Among those who signed it were Senate Foreign Relations Committee ranking member Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., and Sens. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., Tim Kaine, D-Va., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii.
