A bipartisan group of U.S. Senators is demanding a formal investigation into a strike on a school in Iran following reports of potential U.S. military involvement. The incident has sparked international condemnation and raised critical questions regarding the rules of engagement and the transparency of U.S. operations in the region.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham has issued a strategic warning to Israel, advising against strikes on Iranian oil depots despite his self-acknowledged role in the current escalation. This diplomatic pivot highlights growing concerns over global energy stability and the potential for an uncontrollable regional economic fallout.
