Ali Larijani, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, was killed on Tuesday in a strike at his daughter’s home in the Pardis area, according to Iranian state media.
The state affiliated, Fars News Agency described him as “one of the country’s prominent and prudent officials” and said the attack also claimed the lives of his son, a deputy, and several bodyguards. Iran labelled him a martyr, honouring his role in shaping the country’s defence and regional policies.
