<p>In a joint statement marking the one-year anniversary of the Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 crash, Ukraine, France, Canada, the UK and Sweden said they want Tehran “to provide a complete and thorough explanation of the events and decisions that led to this appalling plane crash”.</p>
<p>Sweden earlier had said that Iran had agreed to compensate the families’ of the foreign victims.</p>
<p>The shooting down by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard happened the same night Iran launched a ballistic missile attack targeting US soldiers in Iraq, its response to the American drone strike that killed Guard General Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad on January 3.</p>
<p>The plane was en route to the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.</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><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>British citizens Sam Zokaei, Saeed Tahmasebi Khademasadi and Mohammad Reza Kadkhoda Zadeh were identified as among the dead.</p>
<p>Mr Tahmasebi’s wife, Niloufar Ebrahim, was also among those killed.</p>
<p>She was not yet a British citizen but was planning to settle in the UK with her new husband.</p>
<p>Arad Zarei, a 17-year-old former London schoolboy who had relocated to Canada, was also named as a victim.</p>
<p>Those from Sweden included both Swedish nationals and people with staying permits in the Scandinavian country.</p>
<p>At first, Iran had denied its involvement in the plane crash but then announced that its military had mistakenly and unintentionally shot down the Ukrainian jetliner.</p>
<p>The statement was signed by ministers of Afghanistan, Canada, Sweden, Ukraine and the United Kingdom.</p>
