Hegseth on whether strike on civilian infrastructure a war crime: 'Disingenuous question' (opens in new tab)

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Wednesday slammed a reporter’s question about whether a U.S. strike on Iran’s civilian infrastructure would be considered a war crime. “Well, it's precisely the kind of disingenuous question that I’m used to from the media, impugning the motives of the folks on our side who are incredibly professional and incredibly effective,” Hegseth responded.
