“The UN report also accused Iran of crimes against humanity for a spike in killings”
of its citizens, and Pierre's Hadel Al-Shelgi reports from Istanbul." The United Nations fact-finding mission for its top human rights body said it has found a quote reasonable grounds to believe that the U.S. committed war crimes in two strikes, one on a school and another on a sports complex and residential area both in southern Iran.
The UN says almost 180 people, including children, were killed in both strikes. The U.S. has yet to respond to the claim of the school strike and denied striking the sports complex.

Buckingham Palace has responded, as NPR's Fatima Al-Kasab reports from London. In an extract of his new book published in the Daily Mail newspaper, Diana's brother writes about what he describes as the King's "contempt for Diana" and his horror that the world was so bold over by her death. He also alleges Charles unleashed a stream of anger when he suggested that Diana would not
have wanted her sons, the Princess William and Harry, then aged 15 and 12, to have walked in her funeral procession. Soon after the allegations were published, Buckingham Palace issued a rare, sharply-wired statement, saying the palace wouldn't normally comment on books as a matter of principle, but that the King is, quote, "mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud
