'Why Are You the Only Person Saying This?' Reporter Asks Trump About Dubious Claim That Iran Bombed Own School [View all]

President Donald Trump was asked by a reporter on Monday why he is the only person who insists that an Iranian missile hit an elementary school in the southern part of the country.

The U.S. and Israel began bombing Iran last weekend in a campaign that Trump said could last at least a month. Among the first structures hit was a girls’ elementary school in Minab. On Thursday, Reuters reported that U.S. investigators believe it was likely that a U.S.-fired missile hit the school. At least 175 people were killed, most of them young girls. A New York Times report, meanwhile, concluded that a Tomahawk missile hit the school and that the projectile was likely launched by the U.S.

Neither Iran nor Israel is believed to possess Tomahawk missiles.

During a press conference on Monday, CNN’s Manu Raju asked the president if the U.S. would “accept any responsibility.”
