A new video reveals that two missiles struck Ukraine International Airlines flight PS752, which crashed shortly after take-off from Tehran, Iran early on January 8.
The video appears to be taken from a security camera on the roof of a building near where the plane was struck. The video, which was originally uploaded to YouTube by an Iranian user early Tuesday morning was verified as authentic by a New York Times investigations team.
The video shows the plane being struck by the first missile, which appeared to result in a small explosion, followed by the second missile strike about 20 seconds later. Neither missile immediately downed the plane, which continued to fly for several minutes and attempted to return to the airport. The new video shows the plane appear to be on fire shortly after being hit by the second missile. A video that emerged last week showed the impact from one of the missiles. All 176 people on the plane, a Boeing 737-800 bound for Kyiv, Ukraine, were killed.
The new video can help explain why the plane's transponder stopped transmitting before the crash, suggesting that it was disabled by the first missile. The crash came hours after Iran fired a barrage of missiles at a military base in Iraq housing US forces. Iranian officials initially denied that it shot down the plane before reversing and confirming that it fired the missiles, blaming human error as the military was on high alert in case of retaliatory strikes.
Iranian officials have said that the plane wandered too close to a military site, but an analysis of transponder data from previous flights to Kyiv, and other flights the morning of January 8, shows that PS752 did not deviate from its normal route or vary significantly from other civil flights that day.

“Hey, let’s take out X, Y, & Z secretly by first trying to start WWIII by attacking a US military base in another country and then cleverly downing X/Y/Z’s flight after it takes off after the distracting attack, and then blaming it on the plane malfunctioning!” Not.
The guy is video taping the downing of the jet liner leaving Tehran...my guess has always been that there was someone on the plane that orchestrated Soleumani’s death.
Huh?
It’s a building security camera, recording constantly. After the incident, someone checked the video, found the event recorded, and used a cellphone to record it off the security system screen.
Ok, that makes sense...
Leftists, desperate to blame their favorite boogeymen, will find some way to pin it on the start of slavery in North America.
Obviously the plane committed suicide.....oh..wait ..the second missile was fired to try to take down the accidentally fired first missile....obviously.
Iran has admitted they downed the plane. Why is more video evidence necessary?
The guy is video recording playback of CCTV security camera content.
This confirms why the earlier video, by someone actually watching the event happen, was recorded at all: there was a first missile strike, which someone saw and immediately started recording the aftermath of - including the second strike.
So far I’m not seeing any justification for a “planned takedown”. You don’t risk an outright war just to cover for an assassination of a victim who doesn’t make news when discovered dead.
Video of the complete attack independently confirms what happened & was admitted to.
I understand now. The recording was by chance.
Planes take off from that airport constantly. How could they shoot down a plane taking off?
That doesn’t look like no Auto Mode accident!
I heard last night, that the plane was turning to go back to the airport after it was struck the 1st time.
To me, that would mean that there should be something on the flight voice recorder.
Thats what surface-to-air missiles do.
Someone set up there, preparing to counter the response to the airbase attack ... which would have started about 15 minutes later, right about when the airliner took off and likely looked like an incoming bomber.
Not only that, but it was only at 8,000 ft and obviously climbing
Indeed. Always amusing watching people alternate between “X is an absolute incompetent moron!” and “X perpetrated this incredibly nuanced & clever conspiracy!” ... regarding the same incident.
I recall the Fraud thanking Libya for what they did to our ambassador in Benghazi.
I heard last night, that the plane was turning to go back to the airport after it was struck the 1st time.

That explains a LOT!!!
I had two questions when i first watched this video, and your statement answers both of them.
1) Why did the second missile seem to hit notably quicker than the first one (shorter missile flight time between launch and flash) if the plane wasn’t moving (directly or obliquely) nearer to the SAM station.
2) If it was an outbound air craft and that security camera was at the airport, why did the crash (ground strike) appear to be closer to the airport.
Crazy stuff.
Makes sense now
“Was there someone on that plane that Iran wanted dead?”
Iranians are always quick to speculate that. There is very being said about that possibility this time. The identities of all on board have been posted.
