One year after Iran’s military mistakenly shot down UIA Flight PS752 with two surface-to-air missiles, Iran is offering $150,000 payments to families of each of the 176 victims. While Iran’s report on the shootdown near Tehran has yet to be made public, an AP report cites of host of irregularities around the shootdown. Contrary to international treaties, the crash site was bulldozed and many personal effects were looted. Not only were wallets returned empty but cell phones were returned without memory cards. An official Canadian report says this raised questions “about whether Iran had found evidence that passengers recorded videos or tried to call those on the ground in their final moments.”
