Iranian Vice President for Executive Affairs, Mohsen Mansouri, has provided an update on the recent helicopter crash involving President Ebrahim Raisi. According to Mansouri, officials have been in contact with two individuals who were on the same helicopter as President Raisi at the time of the crash. The contact with a passenger and a member of the flight crew shortly after the incident suggests that the crash may not have been severe.
Mansouri revealed that three helicopters were flying on the same route before two of them lost contact with President Raisi's helicopter. The Ministry of Communications and other security agencies have identified the area where the incident occurred within a 2-kilometer radius. However, challenging weather conditions are making access to the crash site difficult.
