Top Iranian nuclear scientist killed in attack

Top Iranian scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, killed in an attack outside Tehran on Friday. The scientist Fakhrizadeh was "seriously wounded" when assailants targeted his car before being engaged in a gunfight with his security team, Iran's defence ministry said in a statement.It added that Fakhrizadeh, who headed the ministry's reasearch and innovation organisation, was later "martyred" after medics failed to revive him.

Fakhrizadeh, once described by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as the father of Iran's nuclear weapons programme, had been travelling in a car near Absard city in Tehran province's eastern Damavand county. Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said there were "serious indications of an Israeli role" in the scientist's assassination. "Terrorists murdered an eminent Iranian scientist," Zarif wrote on Twitter. He also called on the international community to "end their shameful double standards & condemn this act of state terror."
