0
Iranian state media are reporting that rescuers have found a helicopter that was carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, the country’s foreign minister and other officials that had apparently crashed in the mountainous northwest reaches of Iran the day before, though “no sign of life” was detected. As the sun rose Monday, rescuers saw the helicopter from a distance of some 1.25 miles, the head of the Iranian Red Crescent Society told state media. Footage released by the IRNA showed what the agency described as the crash site, across a steep valley in a green mountain range. Shortly after, state TV in an on-screen scrolling text said: “There is no sign of life from people on board.”
