Israeli officials deny killing alleged spy IRGC colonel who ā€˜fell off roofā€™ ā€“ report

 

Officials tell NYT Israel didnā€™t kill officer suspected of providing intel that led to colleagueā€™s slaying; report comes as it emerges Iran scientist died in unclear circumstances

 

Two senior Israeli defense officials have reportedly said Israel did not kill the colonel of the elite Quds Force of Iranā€™s Revolutionary Guards who was reportedly suspected of providing information that led to the assassination of a colleague, allegedly by Israel.

 

Col. Ali Esmailzadehā€™s death, reported for the first time on Friday, was the second in two weeks from the unit which oversees Iranā€™s military operations abroad.

 

The officials spoke to The New York Times in a report published Saturday, a day after an Iranian opposition website, quoting unnamed sources, alleged that the IRGC had killed Esmailzadeh for espionage.

 

The Israeli officials who denied Israel had killed Esmailzadeh spoke with The New York Times on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about the matter on the record.

 

The Revolutionary Guards have not issued a statement or offered public condolences to Esmailzadehā€™s family since his death, The New York Times said, noting that this was unusual.

Look Up! The Grand Alignment of Planets Has Begun

671,813 views Jun 9, 2022 While astronomy enthusiasts await the first images from the James Webb Space Telescope, we've got a spectacular celestial event to relish: the grand planetary alignment of June 2022. The planets have been putting up great shows in the predawn sky since March last week. As a result, we have had several planetary conjunctions and two planet parades. Unfortunately, Mercury and Uranus were missing in the April and May planetary alignments. But the two planets have joined the parade in June, and we have an alignment of all the seven planets as seen from the Earth. The last time such an event took place was way back in December 2004, almost 18 years ago.
