The U.S. Errors That Led to the Airstrike on an Elementary School

A continuing military investigation has determined that the United States is responsible for a strike that hit an elementary school in Iran, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the preliminary findings. Iranian officials have said the death toll was at least 175 people, most of them children.

Malachy Browne and Julian E. Barnes, who have been covering the strike, discuss what probably led to one of the most devastating military errors in decades.

Guest:

  • Malachy Browne, the enterprise director of the Visual Investigations team at The New York Times.
  • Julian E. Barnes, a reporter covering the U.S. intelligence agencies and international security matters for The New York Times.
