Iran plane crash: Ukrainian jet was ‘unintentionally’ shot down – BBC News

Iran has admitted “unintentionally” shooting down a Ukrainian passenger jet, killing all 176 people on board.

An investigation found that “missiles fired due to human error”, President Hassan Rouhani said. He described the crash as an “unforgivable mistake”.

The military said the jet turned towards a sensitive site belonging to Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and was then mistaken for a cruise missile.

Iran had previously rejected suggestions that it was to blame.

The downing of Ukraine International Airlines flight PS752 on Wednesday came just hours after Iran carried out missile strikes on two airbases housing US forces in Iraq.

And yet they spent days vehemently denying this, pleading their innocence and saying they had nothing to do with it. Really terrible for all the victims and their families///CRIMSON TAZVINZWA/////

US Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer commends service personnel, condemns Iran attacks – says Americans don’t want a war; President Trump Has No Authority for one, by CRIMSON TAZVINZWA

Senator Schumer holds military service personnel with respect and honour; “We commend the bravery of our service members and personnel in harm’s way.

“And I condemn the attack by the Iranian government and remain concerned about the risk of a further escalation.

“Americans do not want a war with Iran. President Trump does not have the authority for one.”

On witnesses & documents, Republicans can run but can’t hide Democrats will force votes to put Republicans on record A trial without evidence is a farce If Senate Republicans vote to prevent witnesses and documents, Americans will see it as a cover-up

On POTUS speech,

@kwelkernbc

: “He said Iran appears to be standing down. He noted the fact there were no casualties last night in the attack. Is that in fact the case. What if any proof does the White House have that there won’t be attacks through Iran’s proxies?” #AMRstaff

100% there will be attacks. Trump got played by Iran. I don’t know if he knows it but his advisers do. That is why such a short speech. They somehow were able to get him under control for a few minutes but could not risk more.

Los Angeles Times Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu criticized for response to Charlottesville, Va., violence

JERUSALEM — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday, after an Iranian missile strike on U.S.-led forces in Iraq, that Israel would hit back hard against anyone who attacked his country.

Netanyahu reiterated his praise for U.S. President Donald Trump for the killing of Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani last week, calling it a bold move.

The Israeli leader said Soleimani had tried to destabilize the region for decades and was “planning much worse.”

Without directly referencing Iran’s missile strikes overnight, in what Tehran called retaliation for the general’s death in Baghdad, Netanyahu said in a speech in Jerusalem that Israel stood beside the United States.

“Whoever tries to attack us will be dealt the strongest blow,” Netanyahu said, accusing Iran of leading a campaign to “strangle and destroy” Israel.
