U.S. Military Investigating Reports of American Munition Striking Wedding in Iran

The U.S. military is investigating reports that an American munition directly struck a wedding ceremony in southern Iran on September 1, resulting in four deaths and 68 injuries. Experts who analyzed Reuters-verified photos and videos believe the damage is consistent with a direct hit by U.S. ordnance, rather than a ricochet or Iranian air defense activity. Two U.S. officials confirmed that the U.S. military conducted strikes in the Kuhestak area on that day.
