    A U.S. weapon struck a residential building in Kuhestak, Iran, where a wedding was being held. The New York Times verified videos from the scene, matched the location with satellite imagery, and analyzed photos of weapon fragments with an explosives expert, who identified them as consistent with a U.S.-used JSOW glide bomb. The strike killed at least five people and wounded 67, according to Iranian authorities. The Times also found that the wedding site was about 150 yards from a communications tower that was separately attacked.

This decline was driven by strong refinery demand and higher exports. Despite the draw, stockpiles remain 1% above the five-year average.
