Iran’s Supreme Leader has declared five days of national mourning following the death of President Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash. The wreckage was found early on Monday. The foreign minister, one of the nine on board, has also been confirmed dead.
Al Jazeera’s Michael Appel reports on how events unfolded before and after the crash.
To discuss this further, Hamidreza Azizi, a Nonresident Fellow at the Middle East Council on Global Affairs, joins from Berlin, and Alex Macheras, an independent aviation analyst and consultant, joins from Doha.

Truly God is Great
I think Allah had enough of this man (and his government) foolishness
Yes, mourning by throwing street parties. Apparently a traditional Persian custom.
Netanyahu responsible!

All the zio hasbara trolls in the comments are mad
God bless Israel!
May Allah rest him in peace. A great leader to which west world was afraid of
Condolence to Iran and Iranian people! Loss of a great defender against Western and Zionist Imperialism! 🫡🫡🫡
lol typical Zionist and Shah sympathizers (fake Iranians) crying for joy! 😂😂😂
I am upsetting this moment
Inna lillahi wa Inna ilayhi raji'un*May Allah award Ibrahim Raisi the super Janna, the Muslim ummah have lost the supreme guardian.
The Iranian government should have returned the two helicopters. Strictly interrogate everyone carried in that helicopter. If there was any kind of conspiracy, they must have known in advance. Let them be brought under the law. Only then will the conspirators be exposed.

USA and Israel was behind the weather was manipulated by them and laser shot the helicopter how come the other two servived was well setup !!
They think Iran will stop what it’s doing because they killed their leader it is a joke if they think that !
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Congrats to Persien people. I am aware that Raisi was just #2, but at least Iran will be spared from another potential hardline supreme leader
May presedent be in peace!
Nature always wins
May God rest his soul
May God rest his soul
May God rest his soul
May God rest his soul
Isreal and its allies proceeding with the “Greater Israel project” of expanding its territory engulfing iran. “Technical” hit jobs being suggested and forced to fly a old helicopter in fog with 3 helicopters out in the middle of nowhere, one helicopter holding important people only went down. Yeah “no foul play” is a lie. This has US and Israel all over it.
الله يرحمهم 😭
😢😢😢😢😢❤
😢😢😢😢😢
Ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
This man is much better than US president
It’s sad when any human being dies without knowing the lord Jesus Christ, praying for the whole of Muslim world to know the lord Jesus Christ as they lord and saviour. The devil is a liar it’s ONLY through Christ that you will see the kingdom of God not with your deceitful religion.
😢😢🇮🇷🇮🇷😭😭
I’m Iranian and I live in Iran
Don’t trust BBC or west media
The majority of Iranian are sad
Only Israel supporters are happy and celebrating
Rest in peace ❤😢
That's a lie he killed so many people of Iran his hands have blood on it
Europe had the instruction to keep Sweden out of NATO. Mourn for your loss!
The foreign minister was a great diplomat and a good man, so sad.
He's got 72 mother in laws now.
Iranians are celebrating
Iran and India good friends miss u Raishi😢
Helicopter America is censor control bi America hend helicopter censor
As a Muslim, this is probably the best news I've heard in quite a while.
Al Jazeera is probably mourning this guy's death more than the Iranian people themselves 😂
