President Hassan Rouhani ‘fully recognises’ the Ukrainian airliner’s tragedy and apologised on Iran’s behalf.
Rouhani told Volodymyr Zelensky that “all the persons involved in this air disaster will be brought to justice”, it said. Zelensky asked Tehran to allow the bodies of the 11 Ukrainian victims to be repatriated “by Jan 19” and said Ukrainian diplomats had produced a list of steps to be taken to “resolve the compensation issue”.After three days of denials, Tehran admitted early Saturday that it had “unintentionally” shot down the jet after a missile operator mistook the plane for a cruise missile.
