UN Alleges US War Crimes in Iran, Iran Crimes Against Humanity Amidst Ongoing Conflict

A UN fact-finding mission has found reasonable grounds to suspect US forces committed war crimes in Iran, specifically in two February attacks on a school and sports facility, resulting in significant civilian casualties. Concurrently, the mission concluded that Iran's violent suppression of January protests constitutes crimes against humanity, with over 4,200 verified deaths. These findings escalate international legal pressure on both parties amidst an ongoing, costly conflict.
