Who's updated with the news that President Ebrahim Raisi and seven other people were killed in an aircraft?

Do we describe this occurance to be an homicide or fatal aviation accident?
I'm just thinking maybe sometimes we should just look away from how media may twist informations because they're usually not sincere in revealing the reality to the public.
I am certain that will rise some conspiracies, but i would go for occam's razor in this one because if you can't see 5 meters in a fog, you shouldn't go and fly helicopters next to mountains. Obviously people will try to make sense of it as something other than "act of god", but these things happen and conditions definitely support the idea of it being an accident. If they would be nobodies flying, no one would even blink twice before ruling it as an accident. But now it's going to be conspiracy because president chose to risk his life in a bad weather?

It's like the rich submarine guy who died in usa. No one believed it would be other than accident, even lots of people would benefit for his and his son's death.

As far as I know, the President is not that relevant of a figure. I mean, the guy was travelling in a helicopter that looks taken from an 80´s movie, c´mmon this is supposed to be a a petrol-rich country exporting arms to Ruzzia crazily... is that "Iran Marine 1"?? Jokes apart, it is just crazy to fly a helicopter in those conditions, he must have been in a hurry to get to the local brothel.
