Fakhrizadeh’s Assassination Fuels Tension Between Iran, Israel
The assassination of a senior Iranian military researcher, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, is currently fueling a bad blood between Iran and Israel.
Iranian officials believe that Fakhrizadeh’s assassination was masterminded by Israel. Iranian media reported that the remains of the weapon that killed him, which was recovered from the scene, indicated that it originated from the Israeli military.
But, Israeli Intelligence Minister, Eli Cohen, is claiming that his government has no idea who killed Fakhrizadeh, adding that whoever did made the world a safer place because the Iranian physicist took “an active part in creating a nuclear weapon.”
