These US senators also said: "This is not the first time that US attacks during this "war of choice" (a war that started from America's own decision) have resulted in civilian casualties. "This event once again raises serious concerns about the Trump administration's indifference to the protection of civilian lives."
Recently, a UN-sponsored fact-finding panel announced that there are valid reasons to believe that the United States committed war crimes during the two February airstrikes, one of which targeted teachers in Minab and led to the killing of at least 178 civilians, including women and children.
These six senators also demanded a full and impartial investigation into these two incidents and said the results of the investigation should be publicly and fully available to Congress and the American people. The six senior senators of the American national security committees also said: "We have not yet received the full report on the Pentagon's investigation into the February 28 ground attack on madrassas in Minab, in which 175 civilians, most of them children, were killed." The public has the right to know the factors that led to these failures and the measures taken to prevent similar events in the future. This war must end."
