3rd aniversary of tragic UAI 752 flight

3 years ago, in the height of the tension after the assassination of IRGC general Soleimani, the nervous and scared air defence operators fired 2 TOR- M1 SAM towards Boeing 737-800 flying from Tehran international airport to Ukraine, kkilling all 176 passengers and crew aboard.

The passenger manifest lists 176 people - 15 of them children - giving their names and dates of birth, but not their nationalities.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Vadym Prystaiko initially released details that said there were 82 Iranians, 63 Canadians, 11 Ukrainians including all nine crew, 10 Swedes, four Afghans, three Britons and three Germans on board.

However, on 10 January, Canada's Foreign Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said the number of Canadians on the plane was now believed to be 57.

For 3 days, regime media tried hard to deny their deadly mistake before they finally blamed the operators of the defense systems for this deadly accident and whitewash their own hands from any responsibility.

Today is #GenocidePreventionDay.

9 December is Genocide Prevention Day, marking the anniversary of the #UN Genocide Convention.

Since 2015, the United Nations has marked the International Day of Commemoration and Dignity of the Victims of the Crime of Genocide and of the Prevention of this Crime, which is often referred to as Genocide Prevention Day.

We remember all those murdered for who they were and the survivors whose lives were changed forever by #genocide.

40 years ago, an Israeli-allied armed group attacked the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in Lebanon’s capital Beirut.

In June 1982, Israel invaded Lebanon with the stated aim of destroying the PLO.

#OTD #Palestine #Lebanon #Politics #History #CrimeAgainstHumanity

The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) is an umbrella of Palestinian political parties, created in 1964 with the aim of liberating Palestine through armed struggle.

The #PLO withdrew from Lebanon by September 1, 1982, two weeks later, Israeli forces besieged Sabra and Shatila.

They provided cover for a right-wing #Lebanese militia called the #Phalange to carry out the mass killings that continued for 43 hours.

As many as 3,500 people - mostly Palestinians - were killed. Here’s a look at what happened

#Refugees of the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps were victims of the 1948 #Nakba, fleeing the violent ethnic cleansing of Palestine by #Zionist militias as #Israel was formed.

The UN General Assembly passed a resolution declaring the massacre an “act of #genocide”.

Though no one has been held accountable for the crimes of the #Sabra and #Shatila #massacre.
