The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says that Washington must be held to account for a war crime committed by US terrorist forces in Hormozgan Province, after an airstrike targeted a wedding ceremony.

In a statement issued on Thursday, the IRGC said the strike in Kouhestak, Hormozgan Province, was a war crime, leaving nearly 70 people dead or injured, including four killed and several in critical condition.

It added that the act of aggression is part of a repeated pattern of US attacks on civilian gatherings, citing past strikes on weddings in Afghanistan, Iraq and Yemen.

The IRGC noted that American leaders, rather than offering an apology, have once again turned to falsehoods and avoided accountability, similar to their conduct in Minab, Lamerd and Qeshm.

The Guards stressed that US leaders must be held accountable and urged Washington to explain its actions to the international community.

It also emphasized that the United States has failed to achieve its objectives in recent wars against Iran and warned that continued aggression against civilians will not go unanswered.
