Social media users and the Iranian news site Rajanews have circulated unverified claims that U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham was killed by Iranian elements. The claims appear to be based on a post by Rajanews, a site affiliated with Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei's circle, which published a photo of several senior officials including Graham with the caption "updates to follow".
The Zioneer has previously reported on Iranian media threats against U.S. officials. On July 7, Senator Graham responded to an image displayed at the funeral of the late Supreme Leader that called for his elimination. In July, Iranian sources also published images threatening President Trump's life.
The current claims are unverified and no official confirmation has been issued by U.S. or Israeli authorities. The U.S. has not announced any suspicion of criminal activity.
