DUTCH intelligence has information that a Ukrainian airliner that crashed in Iran was probably hit by a missile, a minister said today, making the Netherlands the latest Western country to suggest that the plane was brought down. Canada and Britain have already suggested that the crash – in which all 176 people on board were killed – was caused by an accidental missile strike by Iranian forces, but Tehran has dismissed the claims.
