Mistakenly shot Ukrainian plane

This is not first time Iran's missiles misfired. Previously, a Ukrainian passenger plane got shot down by Iran's Revolutionary Guards mistakenly. All 176 people were killed after Iran mistakenly fired two short-range missiles on morning of January 8 amid high tension between Tehran and Washington. Most of citizens on board Ukrainian flight were Iranians or dual citizens; 57 people among those killed were from Cana while 11 were from Ukraine.
