Iranian leaders have accused Israel of carrying out a missile strike against a senior member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards.
Reports indicate that the alleged target was Brigadier General Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam, a senior advisor to the Revolutionary Guards and former commander of the Islamic Republic’s missile program.
Iranian officials have yet to confirm the general’s death, and the Israeli government has not commented publicly on the attack.
But Iran’s Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi has accused Israel of carrying out the attack and has also accused the United States of supporting such actions. Salehi called on international organizations to take action against “the Zionist regime” over the alleged airstrike.
The latest incident illustrates the increasing tensions between Israel and Iran and the volatile situation in the region.
