During a press conference yesterday, President Donald Trump faced sharp questioning over his assertion that Iran may have struck its own elementary school with a Tomahawk missile at the start of the current conflict. A reporter pressed him on why he appeared to be the only official in his administration making such a claim, noting that even his defense secretary had declined to confirm the suggestion when asked.

Trump responded that he does not have enough information to reach a definitive conclusion, explaining that the matter is still under investigation. He noted that Tomahawk missiles are used by multiple nations and are available for purchase internationally, implying that other actors could potentially have been involved.

He emphasized that he would accept the findings of the official investigation once it is completed, saying, “Whatever the report shows, I’m willing to live with that report.”
