Iran's Fars news agency reported that four people, including a child, were killed in a US attack on a home near Sirik, Iran. ^[1] The city of Kuhestak in southern Iran's Sirik County, Hormozgan province, was the target of multiple overnight attacks by the United States military, with local sources and authorities saying a wedding ceremony was struck. ^[2] The Hormozgan governor's office identified four victims as four-year-old Amir Ali Karimi, 16-year-old Mohammad Malahi, 43-year-old Kolsoum Malahi, and 43-year-old Zarkhatoun Taheri, with more than 60 others wounded, some seriously. ^[3] Escalating hostilities between the United States and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz have intensified after a period of relative calm, driving up global oil prices. ^[4] The Iranian Red Crescent Society filed a formal complaint with the International Criminal Court regarding a US airstrike in Hormozgan province. ^[5] The attack occurred during a wedding ceremony at the residence. ^[6] The Iranian Red Crescent Society's provincial branch confirmed the casualty figures. ^[7] Ali Malahi, the owner of the targeted building where his daughter's wedding was taking place, told state television that people inside were all civilians. ^[8] Footage showed several projectiles struck a telecommunications tower near Kuhestak's shoreline, and defense experts say fragments found in the area might be a variant of the AGM-84K SLAM-ER cruise missile. ^[9] Iran retaliated with waves of drones and missiles against US bases in the Middle East, consistent with tactics used during the previous six months of conflict. ^[10] The resumption of hostilities ended a month of reduced military activity during which oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz recovered to about half of pre-war levels. ^[11] The attack occurred on Tuesday night around 9:30 PM local time at a house in Hormozgan province where a wedding was being celebrated. ^[12]
