Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi was traveling in Iran’s East Azerbaijan province.
Rescuers have located a helicopter that was carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, the country’s foreign minister and other officials that had apparently crashed in the mountainous northwest reaches of Iran the day before.
One local government official used the word “crash”, but others referred to either a “hard landing” or an “incident”.Neither IRNA nor state TV offered any information on Mr Raisi’s condition in the hours afterward. In comments aired on state TV, interior minister Ahmad Vahidi said: “The esteemed president and company were on their way back aboard some helicopters and one of the helicopters was forced to make a hard landing due to the bad weather and fog.”
