Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi's helicopter crashed in the mountainous northwest of Iran on Sunday. Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and his Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian were killed in a helicopter crash, state media reported on Monday. The semi-official Tasnim news said Raisi and several others onboard were "martyred" following an "accident" in Iran's northern East Azerbaijan province earlier on Sunday. State media said the helicopter was forced to make a "hard landing" in the mountainous region after getting into difficulties in heavy fog and inclement weather. Imam survived crash for around one hour and tried to call for help 5 hours ago British broadcaster BBC reports that Mohammad Ali Al-Hashem, Friday Prayer Imam of Tabriz and a passenger on the helicopter, survived for a one whole hour after the crash and tried to call for help.

I wonder too it is sanctions How did Iran's president end up on half-century-old US-made helicopter? The US-made Bell 212 that crashed on Sunday with President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian and several members of their entourage on board was most likely purchased during the rule of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Iranian president's helicopter that crashed on Sunday in inclement weather turned out to have been a well-known Vietnam-era war relic — or at least its civilian counterpart. The US-made Bell 212 carrying President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian and several members of their entourage is a refitted non-combat version of the omnipresent UH-1N "Twin Huey," which is still widely used globally. Despite its proven longevity, questions arose over whether it was fit for purpose, while the fact that the Tehran regime has been under Western sanctions for decades might indicate that proper maintenance of the chopper was uncertain. www.euronews.com/2024/05/20/how-did-irans-president-end-up-on-a-four-decade-old-us-helicopter
