> UN human rights experts say there are reasonable grounds to believe the US committed war crimes in two strikes in Iran that killed at least 177 civilians. A UN fact-finding mission says February missile attacks on a primary school in Minab and a sports complex in Lamerd were indiscriminate attacks that killed civilians and damaged civilian infrastructure. The US has not commented immediately and previously denied striking targets in Iran.
