All 167 passengers and nine crew on board died in the crash. The whole crew and two passengers were Ukrainian citizens. The next day, 45 Ukrainian experts in various fields took off to Tehran to examine the circumstances of the incident. All Ukrainian carriers suspended flights in the Iran and Iraq airspace pending probe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5186 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/internationaldiplomat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/iranairstrikUkrainboeing-300x167.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"167\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">From the outset, the Iranians said that it was a technical issue that caused the crash. However, on the evening of January 9, several leading U.S. editions and TV channels reported that the Boeing 737-800 operated by Ukraine International Airlines had been mistakenly shot down by Iran shortly after taking off from Tehran Airport. Photos of video footage showing missiles that could have downed the plane, as well as video of the moment of the crash, were shared on social media and made it to global news. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, citing intelligence and allies, said the plane was hit by an Iranian ground-to-air missile. U.S. President Donald Trump called the plane crash suspicious, adding he believed that the plane could crash over certain \u00ab\u00a0mistakes\u00a0\u00bb made in Iran. The next day, Ukrainian experts, who worked at the scene and eventually gained access to the wreckage of the jet&rsquo;s front part, also found evidence of the missile hit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On the morning of January 11, Iran officially acknowledged that the Ukrainian passenger jet was downed by a missile. The official statement said that the tragedy had happened as a result of a \u00ab\u00a0human error\u00a0\u00bb. The civilian plane was mistaken for a hostile object after it turned toward a military facility operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani called the tragedy \u00ab\u00a0an unforgivable mistake\u00a0\u00bb and said the country would continue to investigate the incident. In his turn, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that \u00ab\u00a0It wasn&rsquo;t a good morning but it brought us truth.\u00a0\u00bb Zelensky responded to Iran&rsquo;s statement confirming the UIA was hit by a missile, saying that Ukraine expects Iran to fully acknowledge the guilt for downing the UIA plane, investigate the incident, and repatriate the bodies of victims.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PS752 downing: Ukraine releases intercepted tower communications proving Iran was aware of missile launch all along The record proves that the Iranians saw the missile from the moment it was launched and to the very moment it hit the Ukrainian plane.
