Iran says U.S. strike on wedding party killed at least 4 and injured dozens
Iranian officials said the strike hit a home during a wedding celebration and wounded dozens, as CENTCOM said it was targeting IRGC sites.
- On Wednesday, a U.S. missile strike hit a home in Sirik, Iran, during a wedding, killing 4 people and injuring more than 50, according to The Iranian Red Crescent Society.
