152. Among them, 120 students and 26 teachers.
That's the number of people myself and @_BvdM have confirmed were killed when a US missile struck the Shajareh Tayyebeh School in Minab on February 28.
Sky News has verified 152 of those killed when a US missile struck a primary school in Minab on the first day of the war.
Using a range of information sources, the faces of all the 120 students - aged 6 to 13 - and 26 teachers have been identified ⬇️

No charges, and several more changes to the IDF’s narrative:
🔄They admit the first ambulance wasn’t Hamas
🔄They’ve dropped the “Mohammed Shubaki” stuff
❌Still no evidence that any of those killed were Hamas
❌Still refusing to release the aerial surveillance footage

The long-awaited investigation into the IDF killing of 15 paramedics leads to zero charges for any of the soldiers involved. Sure to lead to increased demands for an independent investigation. Interesting timing releasing this now idfanc.activetrail.biz/ANC20…

The IDF just published its investigation into the killings of 15 aid workers in Gaza: idfanc.activetrail.biz/ANC20…
On Friday we published our investigation into the same incident: news.sky.com/story/two-hours…
It’s worth reading both

Amid some admirable reporting - and a lot of unhelpful speculation - about how the flames of the Southport riots were cynically or carelessly fanned on social media, this is by far the best analysis. By @Chesh and @SamDoak5

Looked at the lead up to the Southport riot, the role of the far right, and how tensions were raised on social media.
Worked on this with @Chesh @michelle_inez and @saywhatsaywah

Fantastic project - and in a very crowded area for news, great to do something distinctive, revealing and new with @WhoTargetsMe. Plus plenty more besides c/o @KateDommett @Chesh

Extremely pleased to have worked with @SkyNews on this. Mapping where all the digital ads have been showing up in the campaign, week-by-week.

Proud of this report
We’ve all heard of people dying as they try to reach Europe. But then what happens? How do you put a name to the dead?
