Hegseth “Iran Fires Miss*les From Schools and Hospitals”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth accused Iran of launching miss*les from civilian locations including schools and hospitals during the ongoing conflict with the United States. Speaking at a Pentagon briefing, Hegseth said Iranian forces were deliberately placing military assets near civilians, claiming the tactic puts innocent people at risk as Iranian military capabilities are being degraded. Hegseth said U.S. forces will continue strikes aimed at destroying Iran’s miss*le stockpiles, launch systems, and naval assets while preventing Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons. He also said the current phase of operations could include some of the most intense strikes so far as the campaign against Iran escalates.
