Kremlin Condemns Alleged Murder of Iran's Leaders in Airstrikes

The Kremlin condemned what it termed as the 'murder' of Iranian leaders in U.S.-Israeli airstrikes, following the death of Ali Larijani. The Kremlin's criticism comes after Iran confirmed Larijani, a senior adviser to the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed, highlighting Russia's denouncement of targeting sovereign nations' leaders.

The Kremlin has strongly condemned the purported 'murder' of Iran's leaders in U.S.-Israeli airstrikes, marking a forceful response to the killing of senior adviser Ali Larijani.

Following confirmation by Iran's Fars news agency of Larijani's death in Tehran, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov articulated Russia's staunch opposition to actions against the leadership of sovereign nations.

'We unequivocally condemn any acts intended to harm or eliminate members of the leadership of Iran or any other country,' Peskov informed reporters, underscoring Moscow's stance against such international incidents.
