we got in touch with the head of iran's civil aviation authority and he confirmed that big and small parts of that plane had been taken away. he said the reason is the iranian authorities are bringing these parts to a hangar as he put it to try and piece those parts together as part of the forensic work to then better determine whether or not the plane may have been hit by some outside object or what else may have happened to that plane. he says it's something that's very important for investigators to do. nevertheless, as far as the crash site is concerned, we have some eyewitness accounts that we've been getting, including one eyewitness who said yesterday the scene there, he described it as chaotic saying not just forensic workers but other people there as well. it was very difficult for the authorities to keep tabs on who was coming and going from that debris field. we do know that today things have changed. the authorities have locked that place down and no one can get close to that area. we also asked what's going on with, obviously, the bodies of the people who perished on tha

>> obviously, there was a breakdown in communication between the civil aviation authorities. that is reminiscent of the 1988 shootdown of the iranian airliner and they said what is an airliner e doing in a military zone. and the iranian authoritieses would have keenly aware of not allowing airliners to fly in war zones. of course it was a war zone that time. even though the americans did not the have had not the responded. the iranian authority should have issued a more directive if you will between the civil aviation authors, the airlines and the controllers and the radar operators of the military system. i'm sure they were anticipating an american retaliation. and when i lecture the young men and women, i sometimes tell them e the most dangerous things are adrenaline and testosterone. you don't have a lot of time when a blip is moving across the screen. but it tragediically and thos 1 lives -- 174 lives i guess. but it happened before and we haven't learned the lessons as a sew e sighty. >> an as we have been covers it the last couple hour hours and i mentioned it a couple

those the words of the head of iran's civil aviation authority. they are saying there's a team of ukrainian investigators also on the ground here and that tomorrow the iranians and ukrainians are going to try to read the black boxes together. however, the iranians are saying one of those black boxes is dadly damaged. if they can't get information out of the black boxes, they might ask canada or france for help. >> tell us more about the 176 passengers and crew members on that plane. >> reporter: that's one of the other big tragedies about this. it was a ukrainian plane. it was packed with passengers. a lot of those passengers, the vast majority of them were iranians. just looking at the passenger list, it doesn't really give you a sense of how many iranians were actually affected by all this. 63 canadians. however, a the lot of the canadians on the plane seem to be duel citizens the iranian authorities are saying over 140 passengers were iranians. that shows a lot of them must be dual nationals. the iranians only recognized iranian citizenship. so

with the al jazeera news are coming out for you in the next 60 minutes the head of iran civil aviation authority says the ukrainian airliner that crashed in teheran on wednesday was not short time. but video released by the new york times appears to show the moments the plane was hit by a missile. india's top court orders an urgent review of the looked on in kashmir and says the internet banned in the disputed state is an abuse of power. and after months of fighting in syria's last held.

a key part in that is the head of the civil aviation authority came out and he said categorically thisime that the iranians don't believe that the plane was hit by a missile. he says that that theory as he put it is -- has to be considered not valid. those were his exact words. the iranians are also saying that if the u.s. has any sort of intelligence on this or any countries as well for instance canada, they should bring it forward and file it to the official investigation. so the iranians now saying that while they're looking at a lot of options they don't believe that the plane was struck at least as far as the investigation was concerned. they did give some more detail as far as what may have happened to that flight. the flight was in the air for about 5 minutes. he said it was on fire and this is according to eyewitnesses apparently for at least 60 to 70 seconds before the plane finally hit the ground. the iranians are saying the plane took off from imam comany airport and then at some point asked to climb to a higher altitude and then made a sharp turn trying to get back to the a

now, this morning there was a press conference by the iranian civil aviation authority where they saidthey do not believe in that theory. they said they believe that theory is not, quote, valid. the head of the raveiation authority was saying he believes the debris field that's there on the ground right thereafter that crash would have been a lot larger if that plane had been hit in the sky by a missile and also said he doesn't believe they would have been able to make a move if it would have been hit by a missile or the plane would not have been maneuverable. of course we had video we've seen of that plane possibly getting hit by something in the sky, certainly it seems as though something was on fire in the sky. the head of aviation authority saying from eyewitness accounts they've pieced together the plane was on fire for 60 to 70 seconds before impacting the ground. the iranians as you've noted also now inviting international assistance for this investigation, the ntsb to be part of it, boeing, ukraine to be part of it as well. the iranians are saying it could take two months to re

the head of the civil aviation authority gave a press conference earlier today where he said that the theory as he put it that the plane had been shot down was invalid as he put it. if it would have been shot down, the debris field there would have been a lot larger than it was. interesting, though, in that press conference, they officially asked the u.s. government if it has any sort of information as they put it to give it to the iranians, to give it to the investigation. obviously the fact that american intelligence services are saying that they believe that the plane was shot down by probably -- possibly the iranian military. and finally, guys, as far as the black boxes are concerned because it's a very, very important question, the iranians have showed video of them opening the black boxes. they say they and ukrainian investigators will start to try to extract data from the black boxes. one of those black boxes is damaged. and they say if they don't have the capability to download all the data from the black boxes they'll ask other countries for help, including possibly france, c

we managed to get in touch with the head of iran's civil aviation authority about an hour ago, and he did not down right dispute that the plane may have been shot down by a missile. however, he did say that he doubted that that would be the case. the reason for that is he says that the plane took off. it flew for several minutes. it then tried to apparently turn back to the airport before it then went down. he says he believes if that plane had been hit by a missile that its forward progress would have stopped immediately, and it immediately would have fallen to the ground. so that's what he's saying. apparently there's also some investigators on the ground who are quoted in iranian media as saying they have not found any missile debris on the ground so far. now, what's happened since then is that ukrainian investigators -- this was a ukrainian airliner, have since come here to iran invited by the iranian government to work with the iranians on this issue, and the iranians are saying that they have the capabilities to read the black boxes of this plane. remember that the iranians so f

iran civil aviation authority said it will not give the black forfight recorder to boeing analysis.t is not clear which country iran will send the box to. the really do tick all the boxes is a very good airline, but i believe it will be mechanical or possibly a terrorist act. it is too hard to tell at this stage. >> the crash is a major setback for boeing, which struggle to regain trust after the grounding of its max aircraft following two fatal crashes within five months. the boeing 737 is one of the most popular aircraft in the sky, with a good safety record. investigators must now determine how and why so many lives ended here. peter: the canadian prime minister justin trudeau gave a news conference about the crash just a few hours ago. he said canada does expect to have a role in the investigation. justrainian airlines plane landed in toronto from kiev. according to the airline, there were 138 passengers who were not on that flight because they died in the crash. this somber day comes in the wake of deeply concerning events in iraq. canada condemns the missile attacks launched b

yet, we are hearing the head of the civil aviation authority say it was scientifically impossible for we have to look at chains of command and i don‘t think the iranians are in a place right now where they would want to do that. let‘s see what happens, there is an investigation taking place but i‘m afraid to say that the weight of evidence seems that the iranian version of events does not seem iranian version of events does not seem to be true. the fact is this, western states are not putting the iranians on the blog here. they want to cooperate and they want cooperation from the iranians. it looks like they might get it, and in that respect, i don‘t think the iranians will be backed into a corner, so iranians will be backed into a corner, so it would be betterfor then, if they come out and say the truth. you think on their own time, they will do that? i have no idea. we are dealing with the middle east and sometimes, these things take a bit of time, if at all. if we look at the last time a plane was brought down over ukraine, i feel very sorry for the ukrainians, this is the second i

in fact, the civil aviation authority called it scientifically impossible. within hours of the crash they were already pointing to a technical malfunction as being at the root of it. 45 ukrainian investigators have now arrived in tehran to take part in the iranian investigation. they have not yet had access to the crash site. just a short time ago the iranian government unusually urged boeing publicly also to take part. iran has the black boxes. it's not giving them to either the u.s. or to boeing, but they have said they will share the data with the ukrainians and perhaps some other countries. . >>> back home the house of representatives has taken its first step to limit president trump's military action agaiain iran. the democratic controlled house approved a nonbinding resolution yesterday. under the measure president trump must get congressional approval before engaging in further military action against iran. the vote passed largely along party lines. three republicans joined the democrats. marc lieberman is here in new york. marc, how is the president
