On the 32nd anniversary of the 1994 AMIA Jewish community center bombing in Buenos Aires that killed 85 people, journalist Asaf Rosenzweig accused IRGC commander Ahmad Vahidi and Iran's military advisor Mohsen Rezaei of being the senior minds behind the attack. Rosenzweig noted that both have since risen to top positions in Iran's leadership.
On the 32nd anniversary of the AMIA bombing, journalist Asaf Rosenzweig named IRGC commander Ahmad Vahidi and Mohsen Rezaei, military advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader, as the masterminds behind the 1994 attack that killed 85 people in Buenos Aires. Rosenzweig noted that both officials have since risen to the highest ranks of Iran's leadership.
The statement follows a similar report earlier today from The Zioneer, which also cited a post accusing the same two individuals. The AMIA bombing, the deadliest antisemitic attack since the Holocaust, has long been attributed to Iran and Hezbollah. Argentina has classified the attack as a crime against humanity and blamed both Iran and Hezbollah.
Vahidi and Rezaei have been repeatedly named in connection with the bombing but have never faced trial. The 32nd anniversary comes amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to hold Iran accountable for the attack.
