The attack on a wedding ceremony in Hormozgan is being pursued through international channels

Razieh Alishvandi said: "Following the attacks on September 1 and 2, 2026, in Hormozgan province and reports of damage to civilians and some infrastructure, the National Committee on Humanitarian Law of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in Statement No. 13, emphasized the necessity of full compliance with the rules of international humanitarian law and the protection of civilians."

Referring to a projectile striking a residential house during a wedding ceremony in Bandar Kuhastak, Sirik county, she added: "According to preliminary reports, at least five people have been killed and about 67 injured in this incident. The occurrence of such an incident, especially given the presence of civilians and the death of a child, doubles the necessity of an urgent, independent, and effective investigation."

Alishvandi also reported that a letter signed by Dr. Pirhossein Kolivand, the head of the Iranian Red Crescent Society, has been sent to the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in The Hague, and said: "In this letter, preliminary information about the Kuhastak incident has been provided, and it has been requested that the matter be considered and legally assessed within the limits of the competences stipulated in the Rome Statute, including from the perspective of compliance with the principles of distinction, proportionality, and precautions in attack."

The Deputy for International Affairs and Humanitarian Law of the Red Crescent Society emphasized: "The protection of civilians is one of the most fundamental requirements of international humanitarian law, and all parties to the conflict are obliged to take necessary measures to prevent or minimize civilian casualties and injuries."

She added: "The Red Crescent Society and the National Committee on Humanitarian Law emphasize the documentation and preservation of evidence related to the human impact of these incidents, and the information that can be provided will be pursued, as appropriate, through competent national and international authorities."

In conclusion, Alishvandi said: "The life and dignity of civilians must be respected under all circumstances, and any possible cases of violations of international humanitarian law must be examined independently and effectively."
