UPDATE: Raisi confirmed dead
CDM has a long history reporting from inside Iran.
Sources in-country are telling CDM that the recent crash of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi in a mountainous region was an accident due to bad weather.
As a former special operations helicopter pilot myself, with a vast amount of experience flying in limited visibility conditions in mountainous terrain, I can unequivocally state that this type of flying is extremely hazardous.
When you combine limited visibility with terrain that is dangerous, and requires power that you many not have due to flying at high altitude, it creates an situation ripe for engine failure, or a situation where you simply don't have the power to get out of danger, or to avoid obstacles.
We released a book 'Paying the Price, The Inside Story of the Iranian Resistance last year.
The Iranian Resistance put out a statement below:
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi: Ebrahim Raisi’s death deals a monumental, strategic blow to Khamenei, triggering a series of repercussions, crises within theocratic tyranny that spurs rebellious youth into action
Following the death of Ebrahim Raisi, the clerical regime’s President, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), stated: This represents a monumental and irreparable strategic blow to the mullahs’ Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and the entire regime, notorious for its executions and massacres. It will trigger a series of repercussions and crises within theocratic tyranny, which will spur rebellious youths into action, she said.
Mrs. Rajavi added: The curse of mothers and those seeking justice for the executed, along with the damnation of the Iranian people and history, mark the legacy of Ebrahim Raisi, the notorious perpetrator of the 1988 massacre of political prisoners.
Mrs. Rajavi, honoring the 30,000 PMOI members and other combatants who were massacred—and forever remembered by the Iranian people—emphasized that the pursuit of justice will persist until the regime’s overthrow.
The destiny of all those who have executed and continue to execute Iran’s sons and daughters serves as a lesson to be learned.
