In a surprising turn of events, the United States disclosed that Iran sought its assistance following the helicopter crash that tragically killed President Ebrahim Raisi over the weekend. While offering condolences, Washington stated that it was unable to accommodate the Iranian request due to logistical challenges. This rare appeal from Iran, which typically regards America and Israel as adversaries, was revealed by the US State Department during a news briefing. Responding to queries about potential blame from Tehran, US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin firmly denied any US involvement in the crash.

The military mistakenly targeted World Central Kitchen's vehicles, believing they belonged to Hamas. Visibility issues in the dark hindered the identification of aid workers' logos.
