Sky News spent months digging into the February 28 Tomahawk strike on Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab. Three missiles from the USS Spruance, 716 kilometers away, hit a girls' school on the opening day of the US-Israeli war on Iran. 156 to 170 dead, mostly girls aged seven to twelve. The Pentagon had tracked that schoolyard by satellite since 1987. Could count children's shadows in the courtyard. The school was walled off from the adjacent IRGC naval base since 2015, had its own website, sat right there in open-source materials any analyst could geolocate in minutes. Witnesses watched a second strike hit the exact spot where a teacher had moved surviving students for shelter. Then a third strike on the same site. But here's what actually matters: Pete Hegseth slashed the Civilian Protection Center of Excellence by roughly 90 percent. Cut CENTCOM's civilian casualty assessment team from ten people to one, months before the war started. A May Pentagon Inspector General report found the office gutted on paper, no budget, no mandate, no real mission. The warning system was defunded on purpose, then blamed for not warning anyone. Four months later, CENTCOM's commander says the investigation is nearly complete. Nothing released. Trump, asked if anyone faces consequences, called it a strange question and said mistakes are made and war is nasty. The mistake was choosing not to fund the office that exists to catch mistakes like this.
