Iran President Dead In Chopper Crash | Explained: Geopolitical Impact Of Raisi's Sudden Death | G18V

As Iran mourns its President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and other officials killed in a helicopter crash, the world will be closely watching the aftermath and the implications on geopolitical equations. The sudden deaths of two of Iran's most powerful leaders, comes at a very critical time as far as the Middle East is concerned. For the past seven months, Israel has waged a war in Gaza that was triggered by a Hamas attack on Israeli cities. Tehran has been repeatedly accused of backing Hezbollah in opening the Lebanon front against Tel Aviv. But a major escalation of hostilities between Israel and Iran came in April when Iran launch a volley of missiles at Israel. The attack was in retaliation to Israel killing a top Iranian general in Damascus. Tel Aviv responded by a limited attack on a missile defence system in Iran's Isfahan province that also hosts a uranium enrichment plant. Against this backdrop, the helicopter crash that killed the Iranian president is bound to spark a wave of speculation. And anything that points to foul play may escalate tensions in the sensitive region.
