The U.S. military is looking into reports from Iranian state media that an American airstrike on Tuesday hit a house in southern Iran where a wedding was taking place.
“We’re aware of the reports, which originated from Iranian state media, and we are looking into them,” Cmdr. Tim Hawkins, a U.S. Central Command spokesman, told the Washington Examiner. “The U.S. military never targets civilians, unlike the IRGC,” he added, referring to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
