Russia condemns ‘murder’ of Iranian officials amid killing of Tehran’s security chief

The Kremlin condemned on Wednesday what it described as the “murder and liquidation” of representatives of Iran’s leadership, a day after Tehran confirmed the death of its security chief in an Israeli strike earlier this week, Anadolu reports. “We strongly condemn actions aimed at causing harm to the health, or especially the murder and liquidation, of representatives of the leadership of sovereign Iran … as well as other countries. We condemn such actions,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said at a press briefing. His remarks came in response to a question about Russia’s position on the killing of Iranian leaders, including Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani.
