Senators Demand Investigation Into Reported U.S. Strike on Iranian Wedding
Multiple senators have called for a full and impartial investigation into a reported U.S. military strike that allegedly killed civilians at a wedding in Iran.
Senators have demanded that the reported incident be "fully and impartially" investigated and that findings be shared publicly with Congress, according to the Anadolu Agency. The demand follows reports of a U.S. strike targeting what officials said was a militant gathering, though local reports alleged it struck a wedding celebration with civilian casualties.
The senators' call for transparency comes amid ongoing scrutiny of U.S. military operations in the region and their potential impact on civilians.
