Iran Accuses US of Deadly Strike on Wedding Party
Iran has accused the United States of carrying out a strike on a wedding party in the country, which it claims killed at least four people and injured dozens. One Iranian official stated two people were killed when a US strike hit a house hosting a wedding. Another report cited Iran accusing the US of bombing a wedding and wounding more than 68 people. The US has not directly confirmed or denied striking the wedding party. Following these accusations, Iran attacked US bases and US allies in the Gulf. In response to escalating tensions, former US President Trump warned that the 'biggest' attack is yet to come. The coverage also notes a lull in fighting between the US and Iran preceding these events.
