Feqhi was a member of the Faculty of Nuclear Engineering at the Shahid Beheshti University of Tehran. He was also the deputy head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran.
According to reports, Matlabizadeh has been martyred along with his wife.
Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Major General Hossein Salami, and Commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters Major General Gholam Ali Rashid were among the other officials martyred in the strikes on Friday morning.
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei warned the Zionist regime that it will receive a severe punishment for the strike, saying, “With this crime, the Zionist regime has prepared for itself a bitter, painful fate, which it will definitely see.”
