Iran has confirmed the death of veteran diplomat and former foreign minister Kamal Kharazi, who succumbed to injuries sustained during the April 1 strikes reportedly linked to US-Israel operations. His wife was also killed in the same attack, marking a significant moment in the rapidly escalating tensions across West Asia.
