Days after an elementary girls school in Iran's Minab was attacked in US, Israel strike, Tehran has publicly accused two US Navy officers of being responsible for the attack that claimed the lives of 170 children. Iran released their images through its embassy in South Africa and accused them of directly authorising the missile attack.

The officers were identified as Leigh R Tate, said to be the commanding officer, and Jeffrey E York, the executive officer of the USS Spruance.


In a post on microblogging site X the embassy wrote, "Remember these two criminals. Leigh R. Tate, the commander, and Jeffrey E. York, the executive officer of the USS Spruance, who ordered the launch of Tomahawk missiles three times, killing 168 innocent children at a school in #Minab."

The post ended emotionally by saying, “Remember these two. Don’t they have children of their own?".
