The experts on international human rights of the United Nations say there are many reasons to believe that the United States committed war crimes in the two raids it carried out in Iran, which caused the deaths of at least 177.
A new report by the United Nations investigative office on Iran released states that the unlawful raids carried out in February in the Faramarare prison and at another place in Lamerd during the games included raids without warning and caused the death of the number of people and damaged the property of the affected people.
Earlier, the United States claimed that it had reached Lamerd and that it was investigating what happened in Minab. Another official of the United States affairs department said that the United States did not agree with the results of the report.
The experts also found that the Iranian authorities committed crimes against the international law during a major regime crackdown in January.
They said the killings by security forces happened in "seeing their blood not" in all countries on 31.
Iran also did not focus on the results of the investigation, but earlier it ignored the demands of its human rights and the laws made.
"The number of people in Iran is in the worst state of human rights and the crimes against the international law committed by its government and the terrible conflict that the country is in with the United States and Israel," said the investigative team in a statement released on Thursday.
In their previous reports to the United Nations Human Rights Council, the three independent experts investigated the two most severe raids carried out in the context of the conflict.

On February 28, when the United States and Israel began to fight Iran, Tomahawk precision strike missiles hit the Faramarare prison in Shajareh Tayyebeh in the city of Minab and the country's territory, killing at least 156 people, including 120 children, in the custody of the local authorities.
The experts said that the prison is close to a facility of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and it was reached that day, but the prison is separate and there is no information to show that it was used for military operations.
The experts said, based on the evidence collected - including the reports of the news agencies that show that a preliminary investigation by the US military found that the US military was responsible, and that the US had the Tomahawk precision strike missiles, there are strong reasons showing that the US carried out the raid in the prison.
The US military has not yet released the results of the investigation into the Minab raid, but the US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said "it will never raid the number of people".
Also on February 28, a Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) hit a sports venue and a location in Lamerd, where it killed at least 21 people, including eight children, in the custody of the local authorities.
And, the experts of the truth investigation team said that the situation on the ground was seen and there is no information to show that it was used for military operations.
They concluded that there are meaningful reasons to believe that the United States committed war crimes without any reason that caused the loss of life or injury to the people or damage to the property of the people.
The report of the truth investigation team also concerns the persecution by Iranian authorities carried out in Iran in the month of Dezambere 2025 and January 2026.
The experts said this is a continuation of what has never been seen from the raids carried out in the past, which involved the use of overwhelming force that caused killings and injuries to many people.
They cited evidence, health officials and families who suffered said that the security forces stood on the roofs of houses and other major properties, fighting their rights against the people.
The protesters also suffered severe injuries, burns and loss of eyes from the language of the police, which caused seizures for some.
When the situation escalated, the security forces attacked health facilities, where they tortured all the protesters and seized some, and then seized some health officials, which prevented them from getting care, according to the experts.
They also found that the crowd of people who were arrested during the protests suffered torture and were prevented from leaving the jails.
The experts warned that from the time the government started using the power of imprisonment against protesters, where at least 29 people were killed after they were tried in haste for the charges related to the conflict.
The report of the truth investigation team noted that it is not possible to confirm the exact number of those who died as a result of this action, but said there are sufficient reasons to believe that it is more than the confirmed number of 3,000 people, which the government considers members of the security forces or those watching.
The American human rights organizations said that the US committed the killing of 7,000 people, and almost all of them are protesters.
The Iranian authorities blamed the United States and Israel for starting the conflict, and they blamed the responsibility for the deaths on those they called "apostates" and "those who live by force".
