US Investigating Airstrike Allegedly Hitting Iranian Wedding Party

Vice President JD Vance confirmed on Thursday that the United States is actively investigating an airstrike that Iranian officials claim devastated a wedding celebration. Tehran reports that the attack on a private home resulted in five fatalities, including a 22-year-old woman who died in the hospital, and left nearly 70 wounded.

Addressing reporters at a White House briefing, Vance emphasized that the administration is prioritizing the inquiry to establish the facts surrounding the incident. He maintained a distinction between American military conduct and that of Iranian forces, asserting that the US military actively learns from operational errors.

While the Pentagon acknowledges it is aware of the Iranian reports, military spokespeople have reiterated that the US never targets civilians. Iranian state television continues to broadcast accounts of the casualties, heightening diplomatic tensions as the investigation proceeds.
