JD Vance says US military "never targets civilians in combat" amid review of deadly strike in Iran

A U.S. military operation on Tuesday night near Iran’s southern coast produced an explosion that hit a home where a wedding was being held, killing at least four people—including two children—and wounding dozens, according to Iranian officials. Pentagon officials are examining the incident, and a source said six bombs were dropped, with one deviating from the intended telecommunications target and striking the residence. Vice President JD Vance said the administration is conducting a review, noted that errors are addressed, and asserted that American forces do not deliberately aim at non‑combatants. Iranian authorities have asked for an independent investigation by the International Criminal Court.
