Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian are reportedly missing after a helicopter he was travelling in was forced to make a “hard landing” on the border of Azerbaijan, local media reported.
The massive search for the Bell 412 helicopter involving Red Crescent rescue teams, military personnel, and police is ongoing but is being hampered due to heavy fog in the region. Teams of men are currently on foot looking for the helicopter at the latest reports.
Iran's television networks have no changed their line from "hard landing" to "accident" more than two hours after the helicopter crash. The country's health minister "all health facilities have been sent to the location."

Cheers!

Sometimes you’re the windshield, sometimes you’re the bug.
Wonder if he screamed ‘Death to America!” as his chopper crashed?
Thanks Mossad! We owe you a case of beer.

They might offer Barry the job. he can use Big Mike as his body guard..
Let’s not forget that Kobe Bryant died in 2020 in similar circumstances.
I’d wait for more details before determining whether or not this was foul play.
I figured it was pretty serious when he was mentioned at all in connection with a hard landing of a helicopter.
Let's first free the people of the United States.
Blaming the US and Israel in 3, 2, 1
Barry Sotero is also very very sad.
I hear hunter is available!
He has just been found in one of the hotter corners of hell.
LOL :-)
“Hard Landing,” sounds like something a Democrat would write.
😁
Blaming the Mossad is always convenient.
Either somebody really wanted to put an end to this copter shuttle backdoor diplomacy or somebody found this to be just too much of a fine opportunity to quickly and quietly reshuffle Iran’s leadership.
Ben?
LMAO.
