Of what use is a black operation of killing an enemy without leaving any trace to you?
It is as good as you didn't do it since you are not bold enough to acknowledge it.
If it is isreal that did it, let them come out boldly with good evidence that they did like a man and not hiding like a coward leaving people to be second guessing because killing the man makes no impact since he will be replaced immediately and the status quo remains.

Iran's flag will be raised at half-staff in the country.

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by emmaodet: 6:47am On May 20
Second guessing will only be making people giving them the accolade they don't deserve because even if they are the one who did it or not, people will likely give them the accolade even when they don't deserve it.
Even the Syria embassy bombing, they denied it like cowards if not that there was more than enough evidence pointing towards them before they quickly ran into hole to hide while missiles enter there cities.
Come out like a man and claim your victory instead of this Fulani pattern of hide and seek or hit and run

Don't ever join brain dead people to point fingers without evidence.

The weather condition there was just too bad and even a toddler knows that's enough to crash an aircraft.

Stop spreading fake news here. This is a 2020 picture you're passing off in 2024.

Secondly, your brain cells (if you have them) should have known this is the wreckage of a plane not a helicopter.

Iran is too exposed to western attack abeg.
While will your number 1 be using US helicopter? When you re not in good terms with US and her baby isreal.
They should have been using home made heli or Russia/China own.
Who uses an opponent equipment if not a fool.
The earlier they know this the better.
Moreover, a president moves in convoy whether car by road or flight by air.
The initial report wrote that he was in convoy of 3 helicopters.
Does it mean the 3 crashed? If it is only the president's own then while did they struggle to identify his location immediately when he was in convoy on air.
I smell assassination because even a crashed helicopter has a flight recorder that will identify the cause of accident and when you read that such incident, all were burnt to ashes without any traces of getting anything for investigation, then it smells rat.
Someone in the presidential cabinet is a traitor and it is best they fish them out.
Mossad can not do anything from outside.
If there is going to be breach, it is a double agent inside who either planted a bomb that can be detonated remotely into the heli or gives the president's flight path and movement to mossad who lay ambush to strike the heli down in a low visibility, mountainous area to make tracing virtually impossible or a gift given to the president in Azerbaijan has a planted bomb.
Also, the heli relys on US GPS for navigation purpose.... Honestly, Iran is very very exposed.
You are using an enemy helicopter with enemy's navigational system that can manipulate your pilot's route remotely to fly through extremely bad weather.
There just so many loopholes to exploit

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by emmaodet: 7:13am On May 20
When Iran struck isreal with missiles, they were wise enough to use Russia's Glonass for guided missile coordinates and not US GPS reason while when the missile entered isreal and was successful, the first person isreal foreign minister clapped at was Russia because they know with all the layers of defence they had placed, they never expected Iran's missiles to succeed and that was why Russia's Media personnel ( don't remember her name, that Lady that always talk back for Russia regularly) told isreal to shut up because they were silent when Russia is being banged.
Russia is the cure for the western allies and the know it.
If Iran and China know what is best for them, they better go develop their own sophisticated satellite for accurate coordinate purpose and not rely on anyone even allies.
Russia made the mistake of relying on US GPS but got a wake up call during I think Georgia invading or the event that happened 2014/2016 don't remember when most of their equipment and possible missiles were rendered useless
