Two Iranian judges assassinated in Tehran attack

Two senior Iranian judges were assassinated outside the Supreme Court in Tehran on Saturday morning in what authorities are describing as a planned attack.
Hujjatoleslam Razini and Hujjatoleslam Moghiseh, both long-serving judges, were fatally shot by a gunman who subsequently committed suicide at the scene. Reports indicate that another judge and a bodyguard were also injured during the attack.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the attacker had no prior criminal cases at the Supreme Court nor any known affiliations with its branches. The motive behind the attack remains unclear, and authorities have launched an extensive investigation to identify and apprehend any other individuals involved in the incident, which has been labeled a terrorist act.
Further details are expected as the investigation progresses. (ILKHA)
