US investigators probing an attack on a school in Iran that killed 165 people believe it is most likely that the United States military was responsible for the strike.

Two US officials told Reuters they were still looking into Saturday’s attack in the city of Minab, which Middle East Eye revealed was a “double-tap” strike that killed scores of young girls and boys, and not reached a final conclusion.

While they said further evidence could potentially emerge exonerating the US, their initial findings chime with a number of other reports on the incident.

Some social media accounts had misleadingly suggested the school was bombed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), but this has been debunked.
