PRESIDENT of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, was on Sunday, May 19, 2024 killed in a helicopter crash in a mountainous area of North-Western Iran, the country’s State media has confirmed.
He was travelling with Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and several others.
A large search and rescue operation to try and locate the aircraft was launched on Sunday – with Russia and Turkey among the countries assisting in the effort.
It was initially reported that the helicopter carrying Mr Raisi and the Foreign Minister had made a rough landing in foggy conditions.
Mr Raisi, 63, was a hard-line Cleric close to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
His election as president in 2021 consolidated the control of conservatives over every part of the Islamic Republic.
