An Ukrainian passenger jet carrying 176 people has crashed just minutes after taking off from the Iranian capital's main airport on Jan. 8, 2020.

KYIV, Ukraine — The bodies of the 11 Ukrainians who died when an Iranian missile shot down a passenger plane have arrived in Ukraine for a farewell ceremony. They were among the 176 people killed in the Jan. 8 catastrophe, when a Ukrainian Airlines plane heading to Kyiv was brought down shortly after takeoff from Tehran. Iran acknowledged three days later that the plane was mistakenly hit by an anti-aircraft missile.

On Sunday, the bodies were brought to Kyiv’s Boryspil Airport aboard a Ukrainian air force plane. An honor guard solemnly carried the coffins into the airport terminal, where a farewell observance is to last until the evening.

This is a direct result of Trump's assassination of Soleimani. He must be held accountable

That was the right thing to do, I'd like to imagine I would make the same decision........ It's not what we do in the bright lights but actions when no one is watching that determines our character.

Such a Shame 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

This is so sad , nothing can comfort the families left behind 🤦‍♂️😔🙏

Trump started this mess!

11 U.S. troops evacuated from Iraq base after Trump claimed none 'were harmed'11 U.S. service members were injured during an Iranian missile strike last week against an Iraqi air base housing American troops, despite the administration’s previous assertion that no Americans were harmed in the assault by Tehran Another fact that slipped past trump and pompeo’s attention Unfortunately, I don't believe that they counted the injured. Just the dead. I knew it was another lie. I can't stand that bastard and his men.
