In a recent incident in southern Iran, a wedding ceremony was attacked, resulting in the deaths of at least four people and injuring many others. Following this attack, Iran’s top negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, referred to the United States as "Satan." He made this statement while expressing outrage over the violence, which he claimed harmed innocent families and children. Ghalibaf linked this attack to other violent incidents in Iran, suggesting that the US and its ally, Israel, were responsible for acts of aggression in the region. He used the term "Satan" to describe their actions, a phrase that has been used by Iranian leaders since 1979 to criticize the US. In response to the wedding attack, Iran launched drone and missile strikes on US military bases in several Middle Eastern countries. Meanwhile, a US military spokesperson denied targeting civilians, contrasting the US military's actions with those of Iran's Revolutionary Guards.
