An Israeli official on Monday said that Israel had no role in the helicopter crash that resulted in the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, along with several members of his team.
While condolence messages have been pouring in for Raisi from across the world, including from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as of 13:00 IST, Israel hadn’t issued a formal statement acknowledging the incident.
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, a staunch supporter of the country’s supreme leader, who played a key role in the mass executions of thousands in 1988 and later led Iran during its uranium enrichment efforts to near weapons-grade levels and a significant drone-and-missile attack on Israel, has passed away at the age of 63.
Raisi’s unexpected demise, alongside Iran’s foreign minister and other officials, occurred in a helicopter crash in northwestern Iran on Sunday.
This event comes at a time when Iran is grappling with internal dissent and its global relations.
