Helicopter carrying Iran’s president suffers a ‘hard landing,’ state TV says without further details

A helicopter carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi suffered a “hard landing” on Sunday, Iranian state television reported, without immediately elaborating.

Raisi was traveling in Iran’s East Azerbaijan province. State TV said the incident happened near Jolfa, a city on the border with the nation of Azerbaijan, some 600 kilometers (375 miles) northwest of the Iranian capital, Tehran.

Rescuers were attempting to reach the site, state TV said, but had been hampered by poor weather condition in the area. There had been heavy rain reported with some wind.

Did “The Butcher of Tehran” finally meet his end? It’s long overdue.

That’s okay, they’ll just find a new figurehead to replace him while the mullahs continue to rule.

The landing was hard, but was it hard enough?

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    State TV said the incident happened near Jolfa, a city on the border with with the nation of Azerbaijan, some 600 kilometers (375 miles) northwest of the Iranian capital, Tehran.

    Rescuers were attempting to reach the site, state TV said, but had been hampered by poor weather condition in the area.

    Iran flies a variety of helicopters in the country, but international sanctions make it difficult to obtain parts for them.

    Raisi won Iran’s 2021 presidential election, a vote that saw the lowest turnout in the Islamic Republic’s history.

    Raisi is sanctioned by the U.S. in part over his involvement in the mass execution of thousands of political prisoners in 1988 at the end of the bloody Iran-Iraq war.

    It also has continued arming proxy groups in the Mideast, like Yemen’s Houthi rebels and Lebanon’s Hezbollah.
