Rouhani orders ‘counter-measures’ after Fakhrizadeh assassination
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has ordered officials to take unspecified actions to “prevent and counter” anti-Iranian acts following the slaying of nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.
Rouhani “ordered the necessary follow-up to prevent and counter such terrorist acts that endanger Iran’s security,” Iran’s state-run IRNA news outlet reports.
The comments come at a special cabinet meeting.
Iran has blamed the Friday killing on Israel. Israel has refused to comment.
