A new report from the semi-official Iranian Fars News Agency, which is affiliated with the Iranian government, contradicted nearly all previous reports about the series of events that unfolded that led to the death of Iranian nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.
Initial reports said that a car bomb was detonated near a car that Fahrizadeh was riding in as he was on his way to visit his in-laws outside of Tehran. The New York Times reported that a squad of operatives then jumped out of an SUV and opened fire on the car. The Times of Israel reported that three of Fahrizadeh’s bodyguards were killed in the coordinated strike before all the operatives reportedly escaped.
