🇺🇸 — Secretary of War Pete Hegseth cut staff in offices responsible for preventing and investigating civilian casualties from about 200 to fewer than 40 despite warnings from military leaders, POLITICO reports.

Critics say the move weakened oversight before the strike on an Iranian girls’ school in Minab that killed more than 170 students, while Hegseth viewed the offices as unnecessary and linked to “woke” policies.
