AGM-154 missile debris recovered at Sirik wedding site

TEHRAN, Sep. 05 (MNA) – Retrieved fragments from the missile detonated at a wedding ceremony in Sirik definitively identify the weapon as an American-made AGM-154C Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW).

Local assessments conclude that the US strike on the civilian wedding gathering, which resulted in martyrdom of 5 people and injuries of 70 others, was executed intentionally and with precise targeting accuracy.

Technically classified as an air-launched, precision-guided glide weapon rather than a traditional cruise missile, the AGM-154C is unpowered. Once released from an aircraft, it deploys its wings to glide toward its intended target. The U.S. Navy categorizes the system within its Joint Standoff Weapon family.
