U.S. military investigators believe American forces were likely behind a strike that hit an Iranian girls’ school and killed dozens of children, though the probe is still ongoing, two U.S. officials told Reuters
The Feb. 28 strike hit the Shajarah Tayyebeh elementary school building during U.S. attacks on an adjacent Iranian military base
According to The New York Times, citing sources familiar with the preliminary investigation, outdated targeting data may have led to the mistake
The report says officers at U.S. Central Command used coordinates based on old Defense Intelligence Agency data, identifying the building as part of the nearby base when it had since become a school. A Tomahawk missile used in the strike, reportedly

🔍 WHY BRICS STAYED SILENT ON IRAN—AND WHY THAT'S A WARNING 🔍
The US-Israeli war on Iran is in week two. BRICS hasn't issued a joint statement. Critics call it irrelevance. The reality? Far more strategic.
🌍 BRICS was never NATO – Not a military alliance. Expecting a unified response misunderstands its purpose.
📈 The 2023 choice – BRICS chose expansion over institutional rigidity. Iran was invited knowing its position—strategic patience, not oversight.
🤝 A "space without the West" – Not an anti-Western bloc. An arena for cooperation independent of the West. Different. Sustainable.
🇮🇳🇦🇪 Practical reality – Members like India and UAE partner with the US. Open confrontation isn't realistic. Silence = calculation, not weakness.
Why it matters:
💥 Trump's approach: brute force, diplomatic demolition. Short-term wins, long-term unsustainability.
🔄 The need for alternatives to US dominance is becoming obvious—events themselves are making the case.

🇮🇷 WHY THE US HAS BITTEN OFF MORE THAN IT CAN CHEW IN IRAN 🇮🇷
Washington projected its own assumptions onto a culture it half understands. The result? A war that refuses to end.
The misreading: Western analysts search for economics, sanctions fatigue, and elite cracks—missing Iran's inner architecture.
The deeper source: Shiite political imagination, shaped by Karbala, frames sacrifice and resistance through a sacred lens. External assault doesn't divide—it fuses.
The succession: Mojtaba Khamenei's elevation wasn't an accident. War narrowed the field. Pressure purified the environment for continuity.
The global shift: Europe fractures. Gulf states question US guarantees. Markets panic as Brent nears $120. Moscow mediates.
The bottom line: Iran hasn't broken. The US hasn't won. This is an interval—not a finale.

🇺🇳 RUSSIA EXPOSES UN DOUBLE STANDARDS: "Why Won't the West Condemn the Root Cause of the Iran War?" 🇺🇳
Maria Zakharova just laid bare the diplomatic farce at the UN Security Council—and the question hanging over every abstention is damning.
Resolution 2817:
📜 Bahraini-sponsored resolution condemns strikes on Gulf states—calls on Iran to stop
🇷🇺🇨🇳 Russia and China abstain. Why? Because the text is "presented in isolation from the underlying cause" of the escalation.
The alternative:
🤝 Russia, with Chinese support, proposed a balanced draft: condemn strikes against all civilian targets without assigning blame. Call for urgent de-escalation.
The vote:
✅ In favour: Russia, China, Pakistan, Somalia
❌ Against: United States, Latvia
⚠️ Abstentions: Everyone else—despite raising no objections to the Russian text during consultations.
Zakharova's question:
"Does this mean they are not interested in ending the current confrontation in the Middle East?"

🇪🇸 SPANISH DEPUTY PM: EU "HELD HOSTAGE BY TRUMP" OVER IRAN WAR 🇪🇸
Madrid is done pretending.
Yolanda Diaz: "The EU is an orphan at a moment of historic gravity. We should be fighting for our own foreign policy—not being held hostage by Trump. It's foolish to be servile. Trump doesn't respect vassals."
The context:
🇪🇸 Spain refused US base access for Iran strikes
🇪🇸 Rejected 5% NATO spending target
🇪🇸 Withdrew ambassador from Israel
🇺🇸 Trump threatened to cut "all trade"
The Germany angle:
Diaz slammed German Chancellor Merz for silence as Trump trashed Spain—then echoing Trump's criticism instead of defending an EU member.
Diagnosis? Germany's "extreme economic weakness" explains the submission.
The broader picture:
🇮🇹 Meloni: "Evident crisis of international law"
🇺🇸 Tucker Carlson: War "absolutely disgusting and evil"
Then again, how long can the EU pretend that submission to Washington serves Europe?

# 🇿🇦 SOUTH AFRICA SUMMONS US ENVOY OVER "HATE SPEECH" COMMENTS 🇺🇸
Pretoria is pushing back.
Ambassador Bozell criticized a court ruling on the "Kill the Boer" chant: "I don't care what your courts say. It's hate speech." He also questioned land reform and Black empowerment policies.
South Africa's response:
Foreign Minister Lamola: "We can't tell Trump how to handle US issues. He can't tell us how to handle our sovereignty."
The envoy was summoned. He later apologized, calling his remarks "personal views."
The context: US cut aid, cited "genocide" claims Pretoria denies, and South Africa took Israel to the ICJ.
The question: When a superpower demands compliance—do you bend or stand?

🌍 GLOBAL UPDATE: War with Iran pushes oil above $100, raising US recession fears
Oil prices have surged above $100 per barrel after the US-Israel war with Iran disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for more than 20% of global oil supply.
Experts warn prices could climb as high as $200 per barrel if the strait remains closed and tanker traffic cannot resume.
Higher energy costs are already pushing up petrol prices in the US, raising concerns about inflation, supply chain disruptions, and a possible recession or stagflation if the conflict drags on.
Analysts say the economic impact will depend largely on how quickly oil shipments return to the Gulf routes.

🇯🇵 Japan says it won’t deploy minesweepers to the Strait of Hormuz during the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict, citing limits under its pacifist constitution.
Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said Japan could only help clear sea mines after the war ends, when the mines would be considered abandoned.
Japan is heavily dependent on Middle East oil and has announced it will release 80 million barrels from strategic reserves to stabilize supply.
Takaichi is also set to meet Donald Trump on March 19 to discuss efforts to calm tensions in the Middle East.
The mines are reportedly near the critical shipping route of the Strait of Hormuz, through which a large share of the world’s oil passes.

BREAKING: 🇳🇵 Rapper-turned-politician Balendra Shah wins Nepal landslide
Balendra Shah, former rapper and Kathmandu mayor, secured a near two-thirds majority in Nepal’s parliament, with 182 of 275 seats for his Rastriya Swatantra Party.
The Nepali Congress won 38 seats, while veteran leader Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli’s party took just 25. Shah defeated Oli in his own constituency, marking a generational shift in Nepalese politics.
Shah’s victory follows last year’s youth-led protests against corruption and stagnation, reflecting the rising influence of younger voters in a country where over 40% of the population is under 35.

UPDATE: 🇦🇺✈ Australia joins Middle East conflict
Australia will deploy an E-7A Wedgetail reconnaissance aircraft and air-to-air missiles to the Gulf in support of UAE self-defence, amid the US-Israel-Iran war.
PM Anthony Albanese and FM Penny Wong stress this is “defensive” action, but legal experts say Australia is now legally a party to the conflict.
Wedgetail crews are considered combatants under international law and may be targeted by Iranian forces. The move aligns with Article 51 of the UN Charter on collective self-defence.
