US Vs Iran: Israel Condemns Iran For Killing 176 Passengers

Israel has condemned Iran of deceiving the whole world over the Ukrainian International Airlines which crashed in Tehran.

The United State president, Donald Trump and the Prime minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, had accused Iran of shooting down the plane which had 176 passengers on board.

Naija News had earlier reported that Iran on Saturday admitted that its military unintentionally shot down the Ukrainian International Airlines.

The Iran government further stated that the military mistook Boeing 737 for a hostile target.

The Ukrainian International Airlines had crashed at the outskirts of Tehran few hours after Iran struck US bases with missiles.

Recall that Iran had earlier denied shooting down the plane, claiming that it was impossible for such thing to have happened.

The Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, while speaking on the development said, Iran lied intentionally about shooting down the Ukraine airliner.

“They knew from the start that they had downed it. They knew that it was an unintentional downing, but lied intentionally,” Netanyahu said at the start of a cabinet meeting which he also shared in a tweet.
