Iran is in mourning following the tragic death of President Abraham Raisi in a helicopter crash. The incident occurred as the helicopter encountered heavy fog while returning from a trip to the Iran-Azerbaijan border, where the president had attended a ceremony for the opening of a new dam.
Alongside President Raisi, eight others lost their lives in the crash, including Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdullahian. The government has convened an urgent meeting to address the aftermath of the incident, with President Raisi's chair left vacant and a black sash placed in his memory.
Officials have confirmed that the entire nuclear program of Iran is intended for peaceful purposes, emphasizing their commitment to this goal. The Foreign Minister had previously expressed concerns about certain Israeli officials suggesting the use of nuclear weapons, urging closer attention to the actions of the Israeli government to prevent potential crises.
The tragic loss of President Raisi and other officials in the helicopter crash has sent shockwaves through Iran, prompting reflection on their contributions to the nation. As investigations into the cause of the crash continue, the country remains united in honoring the memory of those who perished.
