Iran admits to shooting down plane unintentionally


Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, urged Iran’s Armed Forces to investigate the “possible shortcomings” that led to the downing of a Ukrainian passenger plane on Wednesday.
“I ask the responsible authorities to take necessary measures to prevent similar accidents in the future,” Khamenei said in the statement released Saturday.
Khamenei also expressed his condolences to the families of the Ukrainian crash victims.
“I should first again give my deep sympathy and hearty condolences to the families of the victims of this disaster and ask God for patience and rewards and spiritual relief for them,” he said.
