It wasn’t launched from a drone - the tomahawk probably was sub or ship launched.

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
Do they not have eye in the sky anything to do with targets?

AWACs are for radar tracking, drones (usually Reapers) are the "eyes in the sky", and they are unlikely to be delivering the ordnance at the moment.

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
It would appear that the US were using outdated targeting data. As far as they were concerned the building was part of an IRG complex but was actually sold-off / let go in 2016 and said buildings fenced off from the IRG complex and repurposed into a school.
Alas the Pentagon didn't seem to be aware of this, which is a failure of intelligence or communication.
Yes, in war, mistakes happen, but it’s not a good look for the US is it?

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
It appears that they used to have Intelligence Officers who would have most likely seen that it was a school and no longer part of a military installation.
Unfortunately, they were all sacked.

Not really

TV and films exaggerate for dramatic effect what really happens, and if attacks were happening at multiple targets at the same time (which they were), it would be problematic to choose which to focus on.
