Iran plane crash: Protesters condemn 'lies' on downed jet

A crowd gathered outside Amir Kabir university, calling for resignations and accusing officials of lying

Ukraine International Airlines flight PS752, en route to Kyiv, was shot down on Wednesday near Imam Khomeini Airport in Tehran shortly after take-off, and only hours after Iran had fired missiles at two air bases housing US forces in Iraq.Those attacks were Iran's response to the US killing of senior Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani in a drone strike in Baghdad on 3 January.

The students called for those responsible for the downing the plane, and those they said had covered up the action, to be prosecuted. The protests were, however, far smaller than the mass demonstrations across Iran in support of Soleimani after he was killed.President Trump tweeted in both English and Farsi, saying:"To the brave and suffering Iranian people: I have stood with you since the beginning of my presidency and my government will continue to stand with you.Skip Twitter post by @realDonaldTrump

"He had 10 seconds to decide. He could have decided to strike or not to strike and under such circumstances he took the wrong decision," Gen Hajizadeh said.

How come you are not reporting the discusting behaviour by police against protesters in France 🤔

Honestly, my name is Joe Blog and it never occurred to me that Iran had not shot down the plane Coincidence was too strong Between Trump arrogance & Iran's confrontational conduct, that plane and possibly a lot lot more could get caught up in the stupidity they both display

Come on Iran. Kick the regime out!

Still calling it 'accidental' this morning, eh, BBC? NO-ONE believes it was an accident. It was a deliberate act of war!

Oups! I killed my enemy without doing it in purpose But I killed he all the same

richardcalhoun Pleased you are reporting on the protests in Iran and Hong Kong so how about the protests in France GiletsJaunes

Not a crash, deliberately targeted and shot down with a missile. No accident, why can’t you get basics like this right?

You know the bbc hated posting this as it contradicts their anti trump bullshit

They also illegally arrested the UK ambassador to Iran,Rob Macaire. Coincidence 🙄

Some governments USE citizens to empower against other governments. We succumb to paying more taxes seduced by slogans and symbols... and asleep from sports, music, and digital agenda....Elections are merely left or right turns but always on the SAME road to war.

Wouldn't it be ironic if Irans leaders caused a revolution against them.

It about every thing We don't want Mullahs anymore. Tell your ppl tonight British ambassador arrested by security near the University by brutal regime of khamenei.

This gives me such pleasure. O you brave people of Cyrus the Great, stay brave and strong in the face of an oppression that is both internal and external

‘Crash’

Are you sure this wasn’t before they took responsibility?

It seems Iran doesn't have 'fire and forget' missile systems, but instead has deployed 'we forgot we fired' systems.

All the British Army bots in here, lol, twats. Dennison Barracks finest giving it jip on Iran. Tally ho!

But you told us five days ago that the people of Iran were united in support of the regime. Was that just made up, to try and make Trump look bad? You’re worthless.

Same people who were weeping for the terrorist a few days ago?

Missile battery with in yards from air port they can see the plan take off, that show how well trained and equipped, Iran just full of shit like Sadam years ago.

When are you going to start showing the French protests again'st Macron ?

How was it a lie It took as little as 3 days of investigation to get their concrete facts together to announce to the public Thats a lot more honesty than the US

The people of Iran need to rise up to this repressive regime now they have the chance to. It will make Labour voters FEWMIN though if they did that.

FINALLY the BBC are having to report this. It has been right across Twitter these past 10 hours but NOTHING on our State Propagandist BBC. It is the GiletsJeunes all over again. If World News does not fit the woke Left BBC narrative it is ignored IranProtests

...and this crowd want to get their itchy hands on atomic weapons.......

JUST WAIT FOR MORE LIES...

And BBC and CNN still Fantasise this Ayatollah regime

One day they are grieving a terrorist The next day they call the government terrorists Not is all well in Iran

Why you’re not talking about what happened to your diplomat in Iran ?

Iran plane crash: Tehran admits it 'unintentionally' shot down planeIranian military officials have admitted that the country "unintentionally" shot down a Ukrainian airliner, killing all 176 people on board. Well the US progressives tried hard to give them cover but if they are going to admit it, then it's over. Hard to deny when there is video showing them doing it! No shit UNHRC were more keen to unnecessarily intervene in a peaceful process of abolishing of Article 370 in Kashmir on false propaganda by Pak. Are they sleeping now or have all the members of UNHRC gone deaf and dumb and can’t see the killing of innocent people in Iran

Footage shows moment Ukrainian plane plummets and bursts into flames in IranSeveral clips are believed to have captured the Ukrainian jet's final moments before crashing shortly after take-off in Tehran. A serious question: why are commercial planes cleared to land or depart while missiles are flying in the sky Trudeau: “Well there you go. Sincere apologies to Iran. Trump made you do it. We know you didn’t mean it. Where do you want me to send the cheque?” Upon learning of these developments today, I just haven't been myself. I'm deeply pained for the victims. And to think that their families might never get answers even makes it worse.💔
