Moscow (AFP) – Russia condemns the killing of Iranian security chief Ali Larijani, after ally Tehran vowed retaliation for the death of the military official killed in an Israeli airstrike. Moscow is a close ally of Iran and has condemned the US and Israeli attacks. Larijani had met Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin in January, at a time when US navy ships were heading towards Iran ahead of the US-Israeli air campaign launched at the end of February.
