Former Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who served from 2005 to 2013, has reportedly been killed in an Israeli-US airstrike, according to several international media outlets. The Jerusalem Post, citing the Iranian Labour News Agency, reported on March 1 that the attack targeted Ahmadinejad’s residence in Narnak, northeast Tehran, killing him along with several of his bodyguards.
The report has not been independently verified, and Iranian authorities have not issued any official statement regarding the incident. Ahmadinejad previously held positions as governor of Ardabil province and mayor of Tehran before becoming president.
The lack of confirmation from Iranian officials leaves uncertainty about the accuracy of the reports and the broader implications for Iran’s political situation.
