Fragments of an American Tomahawk missile were found at the site of the strike on the school in Minab, according to the NYT.
Missile fragments found at the site of the strike on the girls' school in Minab bear markings consistent with an American cruise missile.
The publication analyzed photographs published by Iranian state media after the strike. Among the debris were identified components of a Tomahawk missile manufactured no earlier than 2014.
This includes a satellite antenna marked "SDL ANTENNA," as well as a control mechanism and other components.
The fragments bear the names of American manufacturers Ball Aerospace Technologies and Globe Motors—the same components have previously been found after strikes in Yemen and Syria.
Trump previously blamed Iran for the school strike, but later stated that he was willing to accept the investigation's findings. When asked by reporters, he also suggested that Iran may have its own Tomahawk missiles.
▪️However, as the publication notes, Iran does not have such missiles, and transferring them to third countries requires permission from the US State Department.
▪️Experts interviewed confirmed that the recovered debris matches parts of a Tomahawk cruise missile used by US forces in other conflicts.

Araghchi's response to the US missile attack threat:
Thank you for acknowledging your use of neighboring countries' territory / let no one complain about Iran's response
We thank US Central Command (CENTCOM) for acknowledging that you are using our neighboring territory to deploy HIMARS systems against our people, apparently (including against a desalination plant).
If our powerful missiles destroy these systems wherever they are in response, no one should complain.
CENTCOM, having published images of artillery systems, threatened Iran with missile strikes.
This threat signifies the US's admission that it is launching strikes against Iran from neighboring countries.
Iran is prepared to reduce tensions in the Middle East if the territory and airspace of neighboring countries are not used for attacks against it, President Masoud Pezeshkian said in a telephone conversation with his Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Iran attacked the UAE consulate in Iraq:
The Emirates called it "an unprovoked terrorist attack that caused material damage."
Trump told some vague story about the Iranians directly declaring to Whitkoff during negotiations that they wanted to develop nuclear weapons.
In other words, since the 1980s, they had been publicly and privately saying they had no intention of developing nuclear weapons, and now they admitted it at a meeting, even knowing the consequences.
Another obvious lie Trump is telling
He says Iran's neighbors have sided with the US and are "successfully attacking Iran," which is an absolute lie.
As we saw yesterday, Republicans even threatened the Saudis on this matter.
Well, that's just Tarantino-esque dialogue.
In a nutshell: Trump was asked again about the school attack in Iran, where many little girls died. Naturally, he was asked whether the US or someone else did it. Trump backed off and started talking about Tomahawks and how they sell them to many countries, so they're investigating.
Then another reporter asked: You just suggested that Iran somehow got hold of a Tomahawk missile and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. Why are you the only one talking about that?
Trump: Because I just don't know enough about it.
"Any Arab or European country that expels Israeli and American ambassadors from its territory will, starting tomorrow, be granted complete freedom and the right to transit the Strait of Hormuz":
The IRGC has set a condition for free passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump confirmed that he would lift sanctions on oil from "other countries" to stabilize the oil market.
As already stated, "other countries" refers to Russia.
After his conversation with Putin, this is a fairly predictable development.
Putin's aide Ushakov on Trump's conversation with Putin:
Trump called Putin to discuss a number of critical issues related to the development of the international situation. The focus was on the situation surrounding Iran and the negotiations on Ukraine. Putin and Trump also discussed the oil market situation.
I will say right away that the conversation was businesslike, frank, and constructive, as is typical in dialogue between Russian and American leaders. They haven't spoken on the phone in a long time; the last time was in December 2025. The conversation lasted about an hour.
Trump will support the assassination of Iran's new supreme leader if he refuses to yield to the United States.
The Wall Street Journal reports that the American president told his advisers this.
He will support the assassination of Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, if he refuses to yield to US demands, such as ceasing nuclear development.
At the same time, Israel will assume responsibility for the assassination of Iran's new leader, not the United States, the newspaper notes.

IRGC Air Force Commander Mousavi stated:
From now on, missiles with warheads weighing less than one ton will not be launched. The launch wavelength and wave levels will increase, and their range will be extended.
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) spokesman Ali Mohammed Naini (also known as Sardar Naini) accused US President Donald Trump of lying to cover up US military failures in the region.
He claimed that US warships and aircraft have retreated more than 1,000 kilometers to avoid Iranian missiles, and that American soldiers have abandoned bases and sought refuge in hotels across the region.
He stated that Iranian missiles are now more powerful than at the beginning of the war, with warheads exceeding a ton, and that sirens continue to sound throughout Israel.
He warned that Iran will not allow the export of a single liter of oil from the region to the hostile parties and their partners until further notice, declaring: "We are ready to expand the war. There will be security for everyone, and insecurity for everyone. It is we who will determine the end of the war."
Trump on his conversation with Putin: "...then we talked about the Middle East. And he wants to be helpful. I said he could be more helpful if he ended the war between Ukraine and Russia. That would be more helpful."
I think Trump gave Putin the right advice. He demonstrated how to fight in Iran. Putin just needs to follow Trump's advice, wipe Ukraine off the map, install Russian rule there, and end the war. Because the US no longer has the capacity to fight Russia in Ukraine; the US needs missiles in the Middle East.
"We haven't seen any real action from the US...[...] That's why we say the timing of the current US actions is suspicious and proves that America is an empire of war; that is, it cannot survive without war and chaos!"

According to the publication's sources, the US president is surprised that Tehran is not making concessions, so his entourage is suggesting that ending the conflict should be framed as the achievement of the country's military objectives 🤡😂

Trump:
No other president could do some of the shitty things I do.
That's for sure. Such crazy idiots have never been seen before.
Answering questions about Cuba, Trump spoke of a possible imminent "friendly takeover."
Perhaps Russia should bomb half of Ukraine in a friendly manner and then seize power in a friendly manner?
Trump on his conversation with Putin:
It all happened very quickly. We discussed it with President Putin. He was very impressed by what he saw, because no one had ever seen anything like it before. After all, Iran was a very powerful country with a strong army.
Putin knows how to approach Trump—it's enough to simply admire him. So was Putin admiring Trump, or was Trump lying as usual?
Iran continues its series of strikes in the Middle East:
Tehran attacked Manama, Bahrain, with a missile hitting a residential skyscraper. At least one person was killed and several others were injured.
The US presidential administration is considering easing sanctions against Russia, Reuters reports, citing sources.
In exchange for what? Free bread only happens in a mousetrap, which Russia finds itself in with surprising regularity.
The US military lost two more MQ-9 Reaper drones during Operation Epic Fury in Iran, bringing the total number of lost drones to 11.
The total cost of the 11 lost drones exceeds $330 million, CBS News reports.
