UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk called on the US to promptly conduct an impartial investigation into the strike on a girls' primary school in Iran that killed 165 people.
"What we have asked for are prompt, transparent, and impartial investigations, which we understand have been announced by the US. We need this to happen very quickly. We need to also make sure that there is accountability," he told reporters in Geneva. The UN rights chief added that compensation must also be provided to the victims.
Earlier, Reuters reported that US servicemen could have carried out the strike on the school. In turn, the Fars news agency said that the Iranian authorities had identified the US troops who carried out the strike.
