Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, known for his hardline stance and confrontational rhetoric, was reportedly killed in Israeli airstrikes inside Iran on Saturday. Ahmadinejad was under house arrest at the time and died in a targeted strike on his residence in Tehran’s Narmak districts
Ahmadinejad served as Iran’s president from 2005 to 2013 and was a key figure in Tehran’s nuclear defiance. He was sanctioned by the US in 2023 for involvement in the wrongful detention of Americans
The US and Israel have not officially confirmed the strikes, but US President Donald Trump claimed the operation was a “pre-emptive” measure to eliminate an existential threat
