Iran missiles appear to have shot down Ukraine-bound Boeing airliner, US sources tell NBC News
Spy satellite imagery suggests that a Ukraine-bound Boeing airliner that crashed shortly after takeoff in Iran was shot down by Iranian missiles.
The report came as President Donald Trump said he does not believe the plane crashed as the result of mechanical error.
“It was flying in a pretty rough neighborhood,” Trump said of the crash, which occurred soon after Iran launched missile attacks on bases in Iraq that house U.S. and coalition forces.
