Tragedy struck in the southwestern province of Khuzestan, Iran, as a 9-year-old boy lost his life in a devastating incident involving the police. The unfortunate sequence of events began when the boy's father stole a car and fled with his son inside.
In their attempt to halt the stolen vehicle, law enforcement resorted to gunfire, inadvertently causing the young boy to be caught in the crossfire.
The boy, identified as Morteza Delf Zaregani, tragically passed away from his injuries at the scene, leaving the local community in deep sorrow. The father, who had a history of criminal activities related to car theft and drug smuggling, had reportedly been warned by the police on multiple occasions before the situation escalated, according to reports from AP.
Sadly, this incident is not an isolated occurrence in Iran. In November of the previous year, 9-year-old Kian Pirfalak was fatally shot during anti-hijab protests in the city of Izeh.
The mother of the young victim placed responsibility on the security forces for her son's untimely death.
Furthermore, tensions in the region have intensified as Iran unveiled a provocative billboard in Tehran featuring the Fattah hypersonic missile, accompanied by a menacing message in both Persian and Hebrew. The billboard boldly declares "400 Seconds to Tel Aviv," directly threatening Israel's largest city and exacerbating an already volatile situation.
Iran's President, Ebrahim Raisi, recently attended the unveiling ceremony of the Fattah missile, asserting its impressive capabilities, including a range of 1,400 kilometers and the ability to Travel at speeds up to 15 times the speed of sound. Iranian authorities claim that this advanced weapon can evade air defense systems and strike any region within Isreal.
