The Story: Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement on Wednesday commemorating the anniversary of the downing of a Ukrainian passenger plane near Tehran, blaming “US anti-human adventurism and terrorist acts” for the tragedy.

The Revolutionary Guards admitted in January of last year that its forces had accidentally shot down the plane at a time when tensions with the United States were high. The incident took place five days after a US drone strike killed the then commander of Iran's Quds Force, Qasem Soleimani, in Iraq. All 176 people on board the Ukrainian plane died.
