The Ukrainian airliner that crashed in Iran with no survivors suffered a technical malfunction and wasn't brought down by a missile, five Western security sources told Reuters
Smoldering parts and debris, including shoes and clothes, were strewn across a field southwest of the Iranian capital, where rescue workers in face masks laid out scores of body bags.
At Kiev’s main airport, candles and flowers were laid next to pictures of the deceased Ukrainian crew members. Under international rules, responsibility for investigating the crash lies with Iran, and Trudeau said the foreign minister of Canada would talk to his Iranian counterpart to underline the need for a “thorough investigation.” It was “dangerous to speculate” on the possible causes so early in the investigation, he added.

[L4N29E06P]The plane that crashed was a three-year-old Boeing 737-800NG. Its last scheduled maintenance was on Jan. 6, Ukraine International Airlines said.
Some airlines canceled Iran and Iraq flights and re-routed others away from both countries’ airspace following the missile strikes. The European Aviation Safety Agency recommended that commercial flights avoid Iraqi airspace.
