Look At What Accidentally Happened In Russia To Nuclear Experts Helping Iran
According to Ha'aretz, the Russian plane that crashed earlier this week had some passengers of note:
The five nuclear experts killed in a plane crash in northern Russia earlier this week had assisted in the design of an Iranian atomic facility, security sources in Russia said on Thursday.
The five Russian experts were among the 44 passengers killed when the Tupolev-134 plane broke up and caught fire on landing outside the northern city of Petrozavodsk on Monday....
The sources said that the death of the scientists is a great blow to the Russian nuclear industry.
The experts were tasked with completing construction of the plant and ensuring that it would be able to survive an earthquake.
No foul play is expected, even though similar incidents have happened in the past, Ha'aretz reports.

Yeah, it's not as if the Russians or Iranians would ever consider killing off people who could reveal secret information, right?

Oops...a pity for their families, but I hope they hadn't finished the job.

The Tupolev-134 has an incredibly bad safety record, so I wouldn't reach for the conspiracy theories quite yet. Nor would I ever fly on one of those deathtraps.
