Israel claims to have killed Ali Larijani, security chief and ‘strong man’ of the Iranian regime, in a night attack

The attack has been confirmed by at least four Israeli army officers to the agency Reuterswhich specify that Larijani was one of the targets of last night’s attacks in several parts of Iran.

Another of the objectives achieved has been Gholamreza Soleimanicommander of the Basij paramilitary forces under the control of the Revolutionary Guard, whose death has been confirmed by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).

As confirmed by the IDF in a statement, the officer died along with his number two and other leaders of the unit, which he had led for six years, when they were in a makeshift camp in the center of Tehran after the destruction of the main headquarters.

Larijani’s last public image was last Friday, March 13, when he paraded with other members of the regime through the streets of Tehran to celebrate Al Quds Day or ‘Jerusalem Day’. This celebration, established by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, marks Iran’s solidarity with Palestine.

That day, Larijani was defiant towards the US and Israel. “Donald Trump does not have the intelligence to realize that The people of Iran are a mature, strong and determined people“, he declared in videos shared on social networks.

“The greater the pressure from the United States, the greater the determination of the people,” he added from the heart of the demonstration. “The attacks of the Zionist regime against the march route demonstrate its despair“he added.
