Iran International reports that Iranian MP Esmail Kothari, a member of the parliament's national security committee, claimed that information 'indicates' that Mortaza Larijani, son of slain senior security official Ali Larijani, was involved in a phone call that exposed his father's location on the night of the strike. The Iranian news agency Mizan reports that the legal investigation does not support this version.
Iran International reports that Iranian MP Esmail Kothari, a member of the parliament's national security committee, claimed that information 'indicates' that Mortaza Larijani, son of slain senior security official Ali Larijani, was involved in a phone call that exposed his father's location on the night of the strike. The claim, if true, would suggest an internal leak or betrayal within the Iranian leadership. However, the Iranian news agency Mizan reports that the legal investigation does not support this version, casting doubt on the allegation. The Zioneer previously reported on unverified claims of Larijani's death in early July, which have not been officially confirmed by Tehran. The new details, reported by a single source, remain unverified.
