Investigation Suggests US Navy Likely Behind Attack That Killed 150 Schoolgirls In Iran
It's looking more and more like the US Navy was responsible for killing more than 150 Iranian schoolgirls in the first hours of Operation Epic Fury, according to separate analyses of new video performed by research firm Bellingcat and the New York Times, who each tapped weapons experts to study the footage. Their conclusions contradict President Trump's casual accusation that inaccurate Iranian weapons were to blame.

The strike occurred in the southern city of Minab on the morning of Saturday February 28 -- Saturday is a school day in Iran. Iran reports that 175 people were killed, mostly children, at the girls' elementary school near an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps base. While some, including former National Security Advisor John Bolton, reflexively blamed Iran for ha...

Iran's New Supreme Leader To Be Chosen Within 24 Hours: State Media
Iran could be hours away from installing a new supreme leader, with state Fars News reporting early Saturday that a successor may be selected within the next 24 hours, but there are signs of a potential factional power struggle - somewhat expected given the complex history of reform vs. hardline Islamic interpretations inside Iran.
The outlet cited sources within the Assembly of Experts, which is the 88-member body of Islamic jurists elected every eight years and tasked with choosing the country's top clerical authority. The process was "paused" this week amid the heavy bombing campaign.

There were reports earlier this week that the US-Israeli Operation Epic Fury had struck a Tehran building where the Assembly of Experts were meeting, but such battlefield claims by US and Israeli officials remain hard to ultimately verify, given the intensify of the bombardment and fog of war.

Futures Bounce, Oil Slides After Report Of Iran Backchannel Outreach
It was shaping up as a catastrophic, margin-call driven Wednesday session after Japan's Nikkei tumbled about 4% and Korea's Kospi suffered its biggest drop ever, plunging by a record 12%. But after initially plunging overnight, S&P futures rose as much as 0.4% after the New York Times reported that operatives from Iran's Ministry of Intelligence used backchannels to contact the Central Intelligence Agency a day after US-Israeli attacks began. The report also stated that US officials are skeptical that either the Trump administration or Iran is ready for an offramp. Then futures faded modestly after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said a proposed 15% global tariff may take effect this week, bringing trade tensions back into focus as traders followed developments in the Middle East. As of 8:00am ET, futures for the S&P 500 - extremely illiquid and jittery - were little changed after rising as much as 0.4%, while Nasdaq fu...
