In the early hours of a Wednesday morning in Kuhestak, southern Iran, a wedding celebration became the latest site of grief in an escalating military conflict between the United States and Iran. Iranian officials say an American airstrike struck the gathering, killing at least five people, among them a child, and wounding dozens more — most of them women and children. The strike arrives amid a broader pattern of military exchanges that began in late February, with the Strait of Hormuz — a passage upon which the world's commerce depends — caught in the middle, and no resolution yet in sight.
