A look at the top Iranian official and the head of internal security targeted by Israel

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates: Ali Larijani, a top Iranian security official, was widely believed to be running the country as it reeled from the killing of its supreme leader and a widening war. Israel said Tuesday that it killed Larijani in an overnight strike. Israel’s military also said it killed Iranian Gen. Gholam Reza Soleimani, who led a powerful internal security force that has crushed waves of mass protests against the Shiite theocracy. Iranian authorities later confirmed both deaths.
