   Iranian rescue teams are currently searching for the helicopter carrying President Ebrahim Raisi which reportedly crashed on Sunday.

   The teams could be seen searching through thick fog on mountain roads and hillsides.

   Iranian state media is currently calling on the public to pray for Raisi.

   The helicopter was also reportedly carrying Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian.

     Iran’s president is missing — so far they can’t find him — after a “rough landing” in a helicopter.

     Tough days ahead…
