???? PLAY AND WIN ON UP-X: http://jj.su/4PJkbv October 4, 2001. On this day, Siberia Airlines was operating an international flight from Tel Aviv. The Tu-154 was carrying 66 passengers to Novosibirsk when, over the Black Sea, two hundred kilometers from Sochi, the connection with it was lost, and a message was received from the An-24 of Armenian Airlines, which was in the same area, about a flash in the sky. It was not just a flash, as it turned out later, the Russian airliner was shot down by a Ukrainian missile during air defense exercises. Today we will try to figure out how a passenger plane was shot down in broad daylight, and who is really to blame for the disaster?

October 4, 2001. This mistake is not unique - history knows of similar tragic incidents both before and after 2001. So, 13 years before the events described, a passenger Airbus A300 was shot down by a surface-to-air missile launched from the American cruiser Vincennes, killing 290 people, and in 2020, a Boeing 737 of Ukraine International Airlines was destroyed by missiles fired by the Iranian Air Force. Then one hundred seventy-six people died. And as a result of all these tragic incidents, no one was punished, and innocent people died. One can only hope that stories about civilian airliners shot down by mistake will remain in the past. *The Tu-154B model is used in the issue, but in reality it was a Tu-154M.
