Drone footage revealed the remains of his aircraft as state media said there were ’no signs of life’ found at the crash site. It was a Turkish UAV that first discovered the remains of the helicopter using thermal imaging cameras after it went down May 19.
Search parties spent the night making their way to the wreckage before the news broke that Raisi had been killed, along with foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian. Raisi was a religious hardliner known as the ‘Butcher of Tehran’ for his role in executing tens of thousands of student demonstrators in the 1980s. Amirabdollahian was also a hardliner who had close links to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, which is the hidden hand behind Iran’s proxy network.
