A New York Times visual investigations journalist, Christiaan Triebert, has posted on Twitter a new video, which he says appears to show an Iranian air defense system launching a missile at a Ukrainian passenger plane near Tehran on Jan. 8.
NEW: This CCTV footage appears to show an Iranian air defense system, northeast of Parand, firing a missile. I’ve geolocated it right under the approx. location where we think the missile hit the jet. Date is correct (18 Dey 1398) but time is off (7:48), maybe due to settings. pic.twitter.com/cuoadeEG1y
