A helicopter carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has suffered a “hard landing.”.
‘Wouldn’t you want justice and peace?’: Family of man hit, killed by vehicle pleads for suspect to come forwardFILE- Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi places his hands on his heart as a gesture of respect to the crowd during the funeral ceremony of the victims of Wednesday's bomb explosion in the city of Kerman about 510 miles southeast of the capital Tehran, Iran, Jan. 5, 2024.
Raisi had been in Azerbaijan early Sunday to inaugurate a dam with Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev. The dam is the third one that the two nations built on the Aras River. Raisi, 63, is a hard-liner who formerly led the country’s judiciary. He is viewed as a protégé of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and some analysts have suggested he could replace the 85-year-old leader after his death or resignation from the role.
