Funeral in Tehran for Ali Larijani and Sailors Killed in U.S.-Israel Attack

Who Was Ali Larijani?

Ali Larijani was one of the most influential figures in Iran’s political system. Serving as Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, he played a central role in shaping Iran’s defense, nuclear policy, and regional strategy.

Over decades, Larijani built a reputation as a pragmatic conservative with deep ties to Iran’s leadership structure. His assassination marks one of the most significant losses for Iran’s political establishment since the outbreak of the current war on February 28, 2026.

His death in reported U.S.-Israeli airstrikes has heightened tensions and raised fears of further escalation in the region.
