Iran denies IRGC commander killed, vows ‘excruciating response’ over scientist hit
2020-12-02
A response to this report from yesterday.
[IsraelTimes] A front man for Iran’s foreign ministry is denying reports that a Revolutionary Guards commander was killed in a dronezap on the Syria-Iraq border,
...the senior IRGC commander who may or may not be dead was yesterday named as Moslem Shahdan...
and vowing "excruciating" Dire Revenge for the killers of nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.

"We have not received any report in this regard, and it seems more of a media propaganda," Saeed Khatibzadeh says, according to the semi-official Mehr news agency.

But he adds that questions should be directed to Iran’s armed forces.

Reports Sunday and Monday claimed that Moslem Shahdan was killed in a dronezap on his car. According to one report, the vehicle was also transporting weapons.

#3  It was Covid-19. The missile smashing through the roof was just an unfortunate coincidence.
