Israel’s Defense Minister ‌Israel Katz said on Tuesday that ⁠Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, Ali Larijani, had been killed in an ‌Israeli ⁠strike.

Multiple Israeli media outlets also said the ⁠strikes targeted Gholamreza Soleimani, the head of the Basij Resistance Force and other senior Basij figures.

There was no confirmation from ⁠Iran.

Katz said Larijani had been “eliminated” and that he and the Israeli prime minister had instructed the military to “continue hunting down” Iran’s leadership, according to the BBC.

Meanwhile, Iranian state media published a handwritten note by Larijani, though it was not clear whether it was intended as proof of the life of the senior official. Larijani’s note, published on his social media pages, commemorates 84 Iranian sailors, whose funeral is expected on Tuesday, killed in a US attack on their naval ship in international waters, Al Jazeera reported.
