Iran’s Security Elite Targeted in Deadly Air Assault
By A Correspondent – Iranian state media has confirmed that senior officials were killed in U.S.–Israeli airstrikes on the country’s military and security leadership.
According to the reports, Ali Shamkhani, a top adviser to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, and Mohammad Pakpour, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), were killed in the strikes.
State television reported that the deaths occurred during coordinated attacks carried out by U.S. and Israeli forces, targeting key figures in Iran’s defense and security apparatus. Both Shamkhani and Pakpour were described as central to Iran’s military decision-making and strategic planning.
Iran’s leadership has framed the hits as part of a broader escalation in tensions following the strikes, which caused widespread destruction and have led to retaliatory actions. Additional details are expected as more information emerges from Iranian authorities and international observers.
