Tehran Names Wanted Man To Key Role Amid International Tensions
Iran has appointed Mohsen Rezaei, a suspect in the 1994 bombing of the AMIA Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, to the role of secretary of the Supreme National Security Council. Rezaei is subject to an Interpol Red Notice and faces trial in Argentina in absentia. The appointment follows the earlier naming of another suspect, Ahmad Vahidi, as IRGC commander. The move is likely to increase tensions with Argentina and other countries. This development was reported by The Forward.
