Thanks for mentioning it; I hadn't seen it elsewhere.

Looks like it's being blamed on a mechanical failure at the moment. Could be a big story.




A skeptic might suggest that a major plane crash (a very uncommon event), occurring in Iran at the moment of maximum military tension (after Iran had launched missiles at US bases and could be expecting a response), is a pretty unlikely coincidence more likely explained by an accidental shootdown or the like.
