As an Iranian I can say that this doesn't make a difference. The Supreme leader and his buddies run the show. The president is mainly just decorative.

IRNA says this: "IRNA correspondent says rescue and relief teams have been dispatched to the area and search operations continue." so it's rather clear, it was not a "hard landing" but a crash, with mst likely mass casualties"

[@oevers]

If the motor fails, this results to autorotation and a hard landing. In this case they’re stuck, but just because of engine fail and not a crash. And of course that doesn’t necessarily mean there are injured people.
