UN Mission: US Strikes in Iran May Constitute War Crimes; Tehran Accused of Crimes Against Humanity

An independent UN mission has found reasonable grounds that US forces committed two attacks in Iran, including one on a school, potentially constituting war crimes, while also accusing Iranian authorities of crimes against humanity in protest suppression. The findings are preliminary and contested, but mark a significant legal escalation against both parties. This matters as it could influence international legal proceedings and diplomatic pressure on both Washington and Tehran.
