Iran has confirmed that Ali Larijani was killed in an airstrike while visiting his daughter’s home near Tehran. The strike also killed his son and several aides, marking one of the highest-level losses for Iran’s leadership in the ongoing conflict. Reports indicate the attack was carried out by US-Israeli forces targeting key security figures. Larijani, a central figure in Iran’s political and security establishment, had played a major role in nuclear policy and internal strategy. His death is expected to intensify regional tensions and could trigger further retaliation from Tehran. (PC: India Today)
