Overview
- U.S. Central Command said it carried out strikes on IRGC military sites near the Strait of Hormuz and is investigating reports that one strike hit a wedding in Kuhestak, Sirik.
- Iranian authorities and state media say the strike on Tuesday hit a home hosting a wedding, killing several civilians and wounding dozens according to the Iranian Red Crescent.
- CENTCOM and U.S. spokespeople have denied that U.S. forces intentionally target civilians and have opened a military inquiry to examine the incident.
- Forensic analysts, including an expert from Armament Research Services, reported that debris and damage are consistent with air‑delivered precision munitions, a finding that bears on attribution.
- Tehran has launched missile and drone attacks at U.S.-linked targets in the region and the Iranian Red Crescent has petitioned the International Criminal Court, increasing diplomatic and legal pressure and the chance of wider escalation.
