Iran plane crash: Western powers suggest missile downed jet

Western leaders suggest an Iranian missile brought down a Ukrainian passenger plane that crashed near Tehran, possibly in error.

The leaders of Canada and the UK called for a full and thorough investigation into the crash, which killed all 176 people on board.

Iran has ruled out a missile strike by its air defences.

The crash came just hours after Iran carried out missile strikes on two airbases housing US forces in Iraq.
