Ukraine confirms the authenticity of a leaked recording between an Iranian air-traffic controller and an Iranian pilot. It purports to show that Iranian authorities immediately knew a missile had downed a jetliner after takeoff from Tehran, killing 176.

FILE - In this Jan. 8, 2020, file photo, rescue workers search the scene where a Ukrainian plane crashed in Shahedshahr, southwest of Tehran, Iran. The downing of a Ukrainian jetliner near Tehran highlights the limits of the civilian arm of Iran's government against the absolute power of the Shiite theocracy and the paramilitary forces beneath it.

In Tehran on Monday, the head of the Iranian investigation team, Hassan Rezaeifar, acknowledged the recording was legitimate and said that it was handed over to Ukrainian officials. “A series of lights like ... yes, it is missile, is there something?” the pilot calls out to the controller.The pilot responds that he saw the light by the Payam airport, near where the Guard’s Tor M-1 anti-aircraft missile was launched from. The controller says nothing has been reported to them, but the pilot remains insistent.“Don’t you see anything anymore?” the controller asks.

And there is nothing people will do about it, so sad

Middle East ....👇

Barbarians.

And I thought the Iranians were honest and sincere...

This is frumps fault, he’s fragile ego

Iran's government cannot be trusted a uprising of peaceful demonstrations by the people should happen so.a moderate govt emerges so there is peace in that part of the world as Iran wants power over the entire middle east?

TrueFactsStated Just like the US immediately knew there were injuries. Just like he US knew there wasn't an imminent threat when they assassinated Solemani.

Vc é CRIMINOSO JZarif ! Vc é CRIMINOSO HassanRouhani ! Vc é CRIMINOSO khamenei_ir !

Well the tRUMPians shouldn't have killed their leader first. I am sure Iran would not have downed that plane otherwise; why would they?

So what's your point? This was a tragic accident and now some are trying to politicize it as an excuse to try and start a war. With all the help they need from the MSM if course.

Unsurprising.

cryborg Of course. We watched that plane get hit by a missle.

How could Trump lie about brain injuries recently suffered by nearly three dozen American service members in Iraq! Ooops, wrong tweet, this is about Iran.

As I suspected.

5a1di That's not really is by mistake because Iran knot kill iran

Why would Ukraine be the source of confirmation? Shouldn't it be somewhere closer? Sounds very dubious to me.... Is that why Pompeo was just in Ukraine UkraineGate

Thanks Captain Obvious

WTF ap they admitted to it ClickPornNotToInform

we thank you for real news

The families of all the people on board should be compensated

And? It doesn't change the fact that U.S increased the tensions which probably is the main cause why this incident happened.

The second missile shot 30 seconds after the first pretty much solved that mystery for most of us.

Put yourself in the shoes of Iran for a minute. It was a war-like situation & Iran's national security was at stake. Trump had threatened he would destroy 52 Iranian targets.

Can you put that in a memo and title it “shit we already know” Jesus, how could they not know? If anyone believed the Iranian story, you might need to re-examine your life.

The Associated Press: how could these people ever be trusted ?

Shame.

In otherwords the sky is blue.

The 50 other senators who voted “nay” on witnesses and evidence are in need of equal or MORE attention. Not to mention, those SenateGOP who are resigning or will not be challenged in 2020. Given that the whole impeachment is just a partisan effort to retake the White House he did the right thing.
