Iran: Fakhrizadeh killed by Israeli-made weapons “controlled by satellite.”
The Iranian regime has revised how the country’s nuclear weapons chief was assassinated outside Tehran.
Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, also known as “the father of the Iranian bomb,” was killed in a targeted attack near the Iranian capital last Friday.
After days of claiming that its top nuclear mastermind was killed in an ambush involving an explosive-laden truck and several gunmen, Tehran now says that remote-controlled devices assassinated him. A “remote-controlled machine gun” or weapons “controlled by satellite” were involved in the attack, the Iranian state media now maintains. Pinning the blame on Israel, Iran claims to have found equipment bearing “the logo and specifications of the Israeli military industry” from the attack scene.
Iran had previously issued the photos of four alleged gunmen, or “Zionist mercenaries” as the regime labeled them, involved in Friday’s incident.
Despite blaming Israel, the regime could not conceal that the attack could have been linked to some of the domestic groups fighting the Islamic regime.
“The enemy knows full well that he cannot commit a crime without getting a response from the Iranian people,” Iranian Defense Minister, Amir Hatami, admitted.
