Iran’s cabinet has appointed Deputy Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri Kani as acting foreign minister, following the death of Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, according to Reuters news agency.
It follows a meeting of Iran’s three branches of government – executive, legislative and judiciary.
First Vice President Mohammad Mokhber is expected to take over as president. Iran’s constitution says the first vice president takes over for an interim period of 50 days if a president dies in office.
Mokhber has told state television that they would follow President Raisi’s path in “fulfilling assigned duties without any interruption“.
