Iran President Raisi Dead | US’ Parting Shot To Raisi After Fatal Helicopter Crash | G18V

A funeral procession for the late Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi is underway in the city of Tabriz, close to the site of where his helicopter crashed. Raisi, who was also known as ’the butcher of Tehran’, was a polarising figure in Iran. The US, which has had a frayed relationship with Iran, said Raisi “had blood on his hands” for his involvement in suppressing dissent. The White House described Raisi as “a brutal participant in the repression of the Iranian people for nearly four decades”. While Washington offered condolences, the Biden administration made it clear that it’s position on Iran remains the same. #iran #iranpresident #irannews #ebrahimraisi #khamenei #helicopter #helicoptercrash #tehran #israel #biden #news18 News18 Mobile App -
