Dubai - Iranian state television (click here) says scientist that Israel alleged led a military nuclear program in early 2000s ‘assassinated.’
Engaging an armed caravan is not the style of Israel. Kindly remember the 2nd in charge of al Qaeda was recently killed. I think Israel took responsibility for that death.
There was a confrontation of the caravan which included exchanges of gunfire. That is a group of armed individuals confronting Iran. A group that well-armed with the knowledge of the movement of a particular nuclear scientist sounds more like a domestic attack than from outside the country. I remind Hezbollah has access to extensive weapons and will distribute them to groups within Iran. So, there is no clear indication Israel was involved at all.
This scientist is more of a signal that others have knowledge of any Iranian covert nuclear program than a real loss to the Iranian nuclear program. The reason nuclear scientists in Iran have bodyguards is that no one would be a nuclear scientist in Iran given the successful past assassinations.
- For the third consecutive day, (click here) the Health Ministry’s engineered statistics set a record in the number of dead and those critically ill.
- Iraj Harirchi, regime Deputy Health Minister: The increase in the number of hospitalizations and deaths is worrying. It is excruciating that COVID-19 is the leading cause of death in the country and in many provinces.
- Chairman of the regime parliament’s Health Commission: We wanted the cities to be fully quarantined for 15 to 30 days. It happened with delays, and only for two weeks. One-third of the employees are going to work, and the banks and parks are open. The traffic is not much different in many major cities and even in Tehran. Do those who are making the decisions have a presence in society?
- Shiraz University of Medical Sciences: 42 people died in the past 24 hours, and the death toll reached 2,314. We have 2,297 patients, of which 386 are in ICU....
