> After US forces resumed strikes on Iran, Tehran launched missile and drone attacks against US targets across the Middle East. The Iranian Red Crescent says four people, including a child, died when a US missile hit a building during wedding celebrations in southern Iran. BBC Verify examined aftermath footage and munition remnants. The US military says it does not target civilians and was responding to recent attempted attacks on its forces and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
