ICAO has called on Iran to expedite the investigation into the January 8 shooting down of Ukraine International Airlines flight PS752 soon after departure from Tehran. In a statement issued late on Friday, the UN Council expressed support for a report by ICAO Council president Salvatore Sciacchitano urging Iranian officials not to delay its investigation into the incident in which the country’s air defense forces destroyed the Boeing 737 airliner with surface-to-air missiles.
