A black box recorder recovered from a Ukrainian passenger jet mistakenly shot down by Iran in January captured a conversation in the cockpit moments after a missile strike, officials say.
Data from the Boeing 737 indicated that the pilots and passengers were alive before a second missile hit 25 seconds later, Iran's aviation authority said.
The Ukraine International Airlines (UIA) flight crashed shortly after taking off from Tehran.
All 176 people on board were killed.
After initially denying any responsibility for the incident, Iran admitted it had shot down the UIA flight "unintentionally", calling it a "disastrous mistake" by Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps.

When I see things like this I have to ask why somebody had a cell phone out and was pre-recording the attack. The missiles were fired from a considerable distance from the cell phone. That means somebody on the ground knew that missiles were going up. That means their story that the missile battery had just moved and failed to recalibrate its equipment, and was not in contact with its Command Center, are suspect. Someone obviously knew those missiles were going airborne. I don't stand outside at night time aiming my cell phone up in the air just in case of mid-air collision occurs.
Thanks for posting this. Next we have flight 800 to debunk.
