There was no immediate sign the two events were linked and some Iranian officials blamed the crash on a technical fault on the plane. But the cause of the disaster remained unclear, with Ukrainian authorities seeming unsure of the initial Iranian explanations on Wednesday.
Footage aired on Iranian television and released by the Iranian Red Crescent showed the plane's wreckage scattered across a field in small fragments. Iranian officials told state media there was no chance anyone survived. Mansour Darajati, an official at Tehran's governor's office, however, told Iranian state media that the number of Iranians killed in the crash was around 140. It is possible that many of the victims held dual passports.

Try to imagine the last moments of sheer terror these poor people experienced And then give some thought to how unnecessary this was, & how it would never have happened if Trump hadn't initiated the chain of events that led to it through his rash, & likely illegal, assassination
jonkarl Papa Putin isn't going to like hearing this.
jonkarl The only thing that I trust Trump’s gut for are the number of Taco Bowls he can eat.
jonkarl Not so fast there: POTUS
jonkarl ABC starting the ground work to set up the president! ABC is waiting for someone to say that’s not true so ABC can do like they always do. Put Trump down. The rest of the world is claiming Iran May have mistakenly shot the plane down. So take that ABC!
jonkarl I would tend to agree with Trump. He's pragmatic and doesn't mince his words.
jonkarl If Iran did shoot down that plane, then the deaths of the people on board are your fault, you orange monster! How can you sleep at night?
jonkarl Never needs any evidence. He isn’t smart enough to have such big feelings.
jonkarl Duh ass hole
Iran committed a war crime and murdered 176 people the other night And yet the Democrats continue to defend this murderous regime 176 innocent souls murdered by the recipients of Obama cash Whose side are the Democrats on?
jonkarl Something terrible did happen doofus. Human beings died.
jonkarl Fuck politicians! They are killing people and don’t care about anything but power and money!
jonkarl As usual President Trump is stirring the pot. He just can’t leave it alone.
IRAN SHOT IT DOWN!!! BOMB THEIR ASS!
jonkarl I bet the US shot it down. We have done it before and killed 290 civilians.
jonkarl I am having a hard time understanding how Iran would have shot a flight departing their country? Commercial flights are equipped with a special signal that indicates that it is not a military flight... You dont make those kind of mistakes.
Of course Russian would not be involved.
The plane was on fire before hitting the ground, the engines have fire extinguishers and the plane descended unaturally fast, something must have happened inside the plane.
'Justin Cruz' 'Ted Trudeau' 'Cruz Missal'
Justin grew a beard to help squelch the gender debate. 🤪

IRAN KILLED INNOCENT CIVILIANS.... ....AGAIN. yet the Democrats will defend them and even try and rally support for Iran because they are up against Trump
Iran won't give up the black box so you might wonder what the evil bastards are trying to hide.
Could be those missles flying? Just saying
What the hell does queer eye know?
What's wrong Canada? You don't trust Iran? They said it was engine fire. Case closed.
When you travel to a war zone, you're not entitled to security. Neoliberalism getoutofiraq
Spoiler alert: It was shot down by Iran by mistake
That's so bad! lost over 125 soul! big time R.I.P!
