Iran plane crash: Footage appears to show jet debris raining down from aircraft

More video footage has emerged showing what is thought to be the moment debris "rains down" from doomed Ukrainian plane PS752.

On Wednesday, the plane crashed outside of the Iranian city of Tehran, killing all 176 people on board. While the cause of the crash was initially believed to be a technical issue, US officials suspect it was accidentally shot down.

The crash came just after Iran launched attacks against two Iraqi military complexes housing US troops, sparking speculation Iran may have believed the Ukranian plane was a US aircraft coming to retaliate. 

In the latest video, it appears to show the aftermath of two missiles hitting the plane while it was in the air.

Intelligence from the US picked up signals of radar from Iran locking on to the plane just after it took off, CBS News reports.

The plane exploded about two minutes after takeoff.

CBS News also shared footage of the plane catching fire after crashing to the ground.

The New York Times earlier verified footage appearing to show the moment a missile hit the plane.

Of those killed in the attack, 63 were Canadians and 10 were Swedes.

On Friday, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said, "The evidence indicates that the plane was shot down by an Iranian surface-to-air missile. This may well have been unintentional."

US President Donald Trump said he had "suspicions" about what caused the crash, but denied US involvement in anything nefarious.

Iran has rejected the allegations a missile hit the plane.
