In an EXCLUSIVE story on TMZ, it's been reported that Jay-Z and Beyonce were spotted at an after-party in Pasadena. The couple was watching two break dancers and enjoying their post-concert
excitement.

If the article was not enough insight already, a video is attached with the "epic" events
that unfolded that night. (check out the article for more information: https://www.tmz.com/2018/09/23/jay-z-beyonce-watch-break-dancers-on-the-run-ii-rose-bowl-after-party/ )
While TMZ deems the reactions of Jay-Z and Beyonce to be essential information, other world news informs us that Iran's Revolutionary Guard vows revenge on those who attacked during a military parade in Southwest Iran. According to the report from Al Jazeera, four gunmen dressed in fatigues opened fire and killed at least 29 people, injuring another 70 more. Those killed included members of the Guard, as well as women and children who went to watch the parade.
Iranian officials are now blaming two Gulf states and the United States for the attack, accusing them of supporting the group with necessary capabilities. While the officials have not specified the Gulf States, the comments are widely thought to be directed at Saudi Arabia, and the UAE and Bahrain. From the time of the incident, both the UAE and the United States have come out to deny Iran's allegations and condemn the attack.

Why is Iran specifically referring to these countries as those behind the incident? Iran, largely Shia Muslim, and Saudi Arabia, Sunni Muslim, have a decades-old feud, both struggling for political and religious dominance and engaging in a number of proxy wars around the region. Moreover, UAE and Bahrain are closely associated with Saudi Arabia. As for America, the two countries have had a thorny relationship for years. From accusing Iran of running a nuclear weapons program to withdrawing from the nuclear deal and establishing sanctions, the tensions have only risen over the past few months.
