Sign InIndependent investigations by Bellingcat and the New York Times suggest that US Navy Tomahawk missiles were responsible for a deadly strike on a girls' school in Minab, Iran. The incident occurred on February 28 during the opening hours of "Operation Epic Fury," resulting in the deaths of approximately 175 people, the majority of whom were children. Reports indicate that the Pentagon may have relied on obsolete intelligence regarding the target's current use, leading to the strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh Girls' School. This massive geopolitical escalation and the resulting allegations of war crimes have triggered intense risk aversion across global financial markets. Market analysts anticipate a surge in safe-haven assets like gold (XAU/USD) and a significant spike in Brent and WTI crude oil prices due to supply disruption fears. Conversely, equity markets such as the SPY are expected to face downward pressure as the threat of a broader conflict between the US and Iran intensifies.
