Two members of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) were killed overnight in western Iran under mysterious circumstances, according to Iranian reports. Tehran has pointed a finger at Israel's Mossad, though no official confirmation of that allegation has been provided.
Reports emerging from Iran on Tuesday morning state that two Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members were eliminated in western Iran overnight under what Iranian sources describe as mysterious circumstances. By Tuesday morning, officials in Tehran were explicitly alleging that Israel's Mossad was behind the operation — a charge that remains officially unconfirmed from either side. This marks the latest development in a thread The Zioneer has been tracking since early Tuesday: initial reports (Tue 08:14 Jerusalem) described an unidentified assassin; subsequent versions identified the location as Paveh in Kermanshah Province and labeled the killing a 'terror attack,' with some reports mentioning Kurdish forces. By the same hour, Iranian state media had released the names of those killed, and the allegation of Mossad involvement emerged as the prevailing narrative.
