The video shows an object exploding in the air, near a location where #PS752”s stopped transmitting its signal. The plane didn’t explode, managed to turn back towards the airport, but crashed quickly, the @nytimes has determined. https://t.co/HxpaGV7urF pic.twitter.com/7v5S53NkDz

The fact that the video captured is the sky over the area of Paranda, confirmed a team of investigators Bellingcat. They identified houses which are visible on the record, and found that the camera was pointed exactly to the place where lay the flight path of the Boeing.
Bellingcat also calculated the area from which presumably could be released from the rocket. One of the investigators Hristo Grozev wrote on Twitter that the missile launch site can be located approximately 6.5 km from the scene of the tragedy. According to him, it could be a secret base IRSG, reports “Ukrainian truth”.
In Bellingcat note that it was announced about the launch of two missiles. Perhaps the video was just the start of the second rocket. Also failed to verify the two photos that apparently depicted a fragment of the anti-aircraft missile system “tor-M1”, though various sources have confirmed their authenticity. The warhead is in the middle of the rocket, so the nose part could survive after the explosion.
Iran called the version of the missile hit a “psychological manipulation” of the US
Iran strongly condemned the United States and other countries for dubbing version that rockets his defense became the reason of wreck of the Ukrainian plane Boeing 737. “Sorry, but psychological manipulation of the US government and those who consciously or unconsciously support it only adds grief lost relatives,” – said the representative of the government of the Islamic Republic Ali Rabia. He stressed that the promotion of his version of the incident, the United States pursue its own goals.
On Thursday the head of civil aviation Organization of Iran Ali Abedzadeh also denied the possibility of a missile strike on the victim of the crash of the aircraft, reports TASS. In the Iranian civil aviation Organization this version called impossible “from a scientific point of view” and illogical.
Informed sources in the Pentagon and US intelligence reported that, according to their information, the Ukrainian airliner was shot down by mistake. The exploration recorded the launch of two Iranian missiles shortly before the crash, and after their explosions. Also before it was recorded on signal Iranian radar, writes “Kommersant”. According to sources, the launching of missiles at civilian aircraft was accidental.
The President of the United States Donald trump also expressed doubt that the cause of the accident liner was a technical factor. “Someone on the other side, you could make a mistake… It has nothing to do with us”, – he said.
Channel SVS on Thursday also said that Washington handed Ottawa intelligence information confirming the theory according to which the cause of the crash Boeing was a volley of Iranian anti-aircraft missile complex. Later the Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau said Ottawa has “intelligence from multiple sources that indicate that the plane was shot down by an Iranian missile “earth-air”. While Trudeau admitted that to shoot down the airliner could “unintentionally”.
Soon, Prime Minister Boris Johnson also said that the Ukrainian plane could have inadvertently shot down an Iranian missile “earth-air”, but noted that it should conduct a full investigation.
We will remind, the plane of MAU flying to Boryspil, crashed on the night of 8 January, immediately after takeoff from Tehran. On Board were 167 passengers and nine crew members, they all died. Among them were 11 Ukrainians (including nine crew members). Most of the dead were citizens of Iran (82) and Canada (63), and the rest were from Sweden, Afghanistan, Germany and the UK.
After the crash, Iranian officials claimed that the crash was caused by “technical reasons”. According to them, the engine of the aircraft caught fire and the pilot made an unsuccessful attempt to take the liner under control. “If the emergency was caused by a missile, the plane would explode in the sky,” claimed the head of the press service of the Ministry of roads and urban development of Iran Kassim Nizami.
The version that the Boeing 737 with 167 passengers and 9 crew members on Board could be accidentally shot down by Iranian air defense weaponry which are the missiles of the Soviet and Russian production, as well as American missiles appeared immediately after the collapse of the liner. Allegedly the plane may have been mistakenly shot down by Iranian forces after a rocket attack on American military bases in Iraq.
The situation in the region escalated in early January after the U.S. killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad. Teheran then Washington has promised a harsh response.
It is known that the vast majority of air defense systems to Iran morally and physically. There are significant problems with the availability of spare parts, which very often leads to a systems outage.
The most modern air defense systems to Iran are s-300 PMU-2 “Favorit”, delivered from Russia in 2016. Just had a set of four divisions after Russia refused an embargo on arms shipments to Iran in April 2015.
In Kiev at the moment considering seven versions of wreck of the liner, including the defeat of the aircraft of the Russian anti-aircraft missile, a collision with a drone or other flying object, the explosion of the engine for technical reasons, the explosion inside the aircraft in the attack. Three versions were not disclosed, reports “Interfax”.
