TL;DR
President Donald Trump is revising his Iran-war narrative as the conflict unfolds, moving from blaming Iran to bragging about U.S. weapons. New reporting indicates a U.S. Tomahawk strike hit a girls’ school in Minab, contradicting his earlier claims. The New York Times and other outlets cite a preliminary military investigation attributing the attack to a targeting error by the U.S. military, while Trump also claimed that Tomahawks are used by other countries. The shifting statements raise questions about accountability and the administration’s messaging amid ongoing hostilities.
