The US has characterized Iran’s shooting down Ukrainian foreign passenger plane as a reckless move.
After the nation confirmed yesterday that its military actually shot down the airliner killing all 176 people on board, the US blamed Iran.
America said the downing of the plane was a “terrible tragedy.”
A senior official of the US President Donald Trump administration official told Reuters News Agency, “Ultimately, Iran made an awful mistake.”
“Iran’s reckless actions have again had devastating consequences.”
Saturday, Iran admitted shooting down the plane but maintained it was unintentional.
This led to protests in Tehran as Iranians called for the immediate resignation of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, their Supreme Leader.
