According to UN investigators, there are reasonable grounds to believe that the United States committed a war crime with its strikes on a Minab elementary school and a sports centre during the early days of the US-Israeli war on Iran. The school, which was attacked by a Tomahawk missile, resulted in the deaths of at least 150 people, including approximately 120 children.

Additionally, a strike hit a sports complex and residential area in the city of Lamerd. The UN fact-finding mission concluded that the United States launched indiscriminate attacks, resulting in the loss of life and injury to civilians, as well as damage to civilian objects. The report was submitted to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, though it is not a judicial ruling.
