UN Investigation Finds US Committed War Crimes in AI-Directed Strike on Iranian School

A UN fact-finding mission has concluded there are reasonable grounds to believe the US committed war crimes after a February 28 strike on a school in Minab, Iran, killed at least 123 children. A Bloomberg investigation attributed the tragedy to a combination of outdated intelligence, disconnected databases, a 90% reduction in civilian harm mitigation staff, and over-reliance on Palantir (Palantir) Maven AI systems. While the US State Department rejected the findings, Central Command has since updated its targeting review processes and Palantir added new features to Maven to flag potential data inconsistencies.
