The Iranian opposition news site, affiliated with the Iranian opposition, reported last night (Tuesday) that the junior officer and scientist who died "on missions" did not die as a result of a car accident or a work accident.
However, the website did not specify the cause of death of the two, who were reportedly involved in the development of weapons for Hezbollah.
Yesterday, the Persian media reported the deaths of two Iranian air and space personnel.
The two were reportedly killed within a day in unnatural circumstances.
The first report dealt with a man named Ali Kamani, a servant in the Air Force and Space of the Revolutionary Guards, who was killed in a car accident in Khomeini in the west of the country while on duty.
The Iranian news agency Fares later reported that Muhammad Abdul, a member of the Space Center in the city of Samanan, was also killed while on duty.
He was described in the message as a "martyr."

According to the report tonight, the two died in two separate cases, but the source who spoke to "Iran International" did not specify how.
The source stressed their significant role in developing weapons for the terrorist organization Hezbollah, which poses a threat to Israel with a large arsenal of missiles provided by Iran.
The death of the officer and scientist was the latest in a series of senior Iranian officials who have recently been found dead, while the circumstances remain unclear.
For example, Iranian missile scientist Ayub Anthzari, who was found lifeless in early June, and Iranian media reported his death.
Earlier, Iranian media reported that a senior member of the Revolutionary Guards, Colonel Hassan Sayed Khodai, had been killed.
According to reports, unknown individuals on a motorcycle fired at him five times with pistols with silencers and fled.
The Revolutionary Guards called the assassination a "criminal terrorist act by elements opposed to the revolution and linked to global arrogance."
Israel has denied involvement in the incident.
It was also reported that Hodai, whose rank is equivalent to a colonel in the IDF, was involved in terrorist acts against Israeli targets in Africa and South America.
After the assassination, Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi announced that he had instructed to pursue the assassins, threatening: "We will avenge his blood."
