“It’s not just the one who pressed the button. There are others, and I want this matter to be explained to people honestly…. The whole world will be watching our trial.”A spokesman for Iran’s judiciary, Gholamhossein Esmaili, told Iranian media that “a number of people” have been arrested in the past 72 hours in connection with the airplane shootdown, and “extensive investigations” are underway. He did not give any details.
The protestors have criticized the government for denying the military shootdown for three days after it happened, and for failing to close Iranian airports and air space at a time when Iran was firing missiles at U.S. targets and anticipating a retaliation.
