<p>Hassan Rezaeifer, the head of accident investigations for the civil aviation department, said it was not possible to read the black boxes in Iran.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>He told the semi-official Tasnim news agency that French, American and Canadian experts would help analyse the recorders in Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital.</p>
<p>Mr Rezaeifer added if that does not work, the black boxes will be sent to France.</p>

<p>Iran’s Revolutionary Guard accidentally shot the plane down shortly after it took off from Tehran on January 8, killing all 176 people on board.</p>
<p>Hours earlier, the Guard had launched ballistic missiles at US troops in Iraq in response to the US air strike that killed Iran’s top commander, General Qassem Soleimani.</p>
<p>Officials say lower-level officers mistook the plane for a US cruise missile.</p>

<p>Iranian officials initially said the crash was caused by a technical problem and invited countries which lost citizens to help investigate.</p>
<p>Three days later, Iran admitted responsibility after Western leaders said there was strong evidence the plane was hit by a surface-to-air missile.</p>
<p>The victims included 57 Canadian citizens as well as 11 Ukrainians, 17 people from Sweden, four Afghans and four British citizens.</p>

<p>Most of those killed were Iranians.</p>
<p>The other five nations have called for Iran to accept full responsibility and pay compensation to the victims’ families.</p>
<p>The plane was a Boeing 737-800 that was designed and built in the US.</p>
<p><!--Ads3--></p>
<p>The plane’s engine was designed by CFM International, a joint company comprising the French group Safran and US group GE Aviation.</p>
<p>Investigators from both countries have been invited to take part in the probe.</p>
