Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy said that all indications point to the U.S. being responsible for a strike near a school in Iran that killed more than 165 people. He added that he has faith that the Trump administration “will take the appropriate steps.”
“This was a terrible thing that happened,” said Kennedy. “And it looks like it’s our missiles.”
Kennedy added that no matter the response from the U.S. if they are responsible for the strike, “the kids are still dead.”
“And I’m really sorry. But we will learn from it,” said Kennedy.
