The Fars news agency, which is close to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, said that the shots initially fired at Dr Fakhrizadeh’s car came from a remotely-operated machinegun mounted on a Nissan pick-up truck, which exploded with a self-destruct mechanism.
Interesting tech, and presumably relatively easy to deploy and operate.
It claimed that Dr Fakhrizadeh stepped out of the car, thinking it had hit an object or that there was a problem with the engine.
Well he wasn't that clever then, was he? Also, I wonder what his bodyguards were up to at that point - cowering in the footwells?
