Iranian media outlets do not have information about Raisi's condition. Government-owned television stations in Iran have broadcasted joint prayers to pray for Raisi's safety."The president and his entourage are returning using several helicopters, and one of the helicopters was forced to make a hard landing due to bad weather and fog," said Iran's Interior Minister Ahmad Vahidi in a statement broadcasted on television.

He added that the rescue team was on the way to the location, but bad weather made it take longer for them to reach the site."The location is quite difficult and communication is challenging. We are waiting for the rescue team to arrive at the landing site to provide more information," said Vahidi.Raisi was in Azerbaijan on Sunday morning local time to inaugurate a dam together with President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev.

Raisi visited Azerbaijan even though relations between the two countries were strained after an armed attack on the Azerbaijani Embassy in Tehran in 2023. Azerbaijan also maintains diplomatic relations with Israel, Iran's main regional enemy. Iran has various kinds of helicopters. However, international sanctions have made it difficult for the country to obtain spare parts. Iran's air force fleet also mostly dates back to the period before the Islamic Revolution in 1979.
