Iran’s Foreign Ministry said there are no Al Qaeda militants in the country.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry called the information about the murder on Iranian territory of Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, one of the leaders of the terrorist group Al-Qaeda, as a lie. This is stated in a statement published on November 14 on the website of the Foreign Ministry.
In particular, the Foreign Ministry stressed that there are no Al Qaeda militants on Iranian territory, and any information about the group’s ties with the Iranian authorities is part of a “comprehensive war against the Iranian people.”
Ministry spokesman Said Khatibzade called on the media not to become “a platform to spread the deliberate lies of the White House against Iran.”
The authoritarian American newspaper The New York Times reported on the murder of Abdullah (known as Abu Muhammad al-Masri) in Iran on November 13, citing intelligence sources. According to the newspaper, Israeli agents shot him dead in Tehran in early August this year.
Al-Masri is considered the organizer of the 1998 attacks on US embassies in Africa.
