So many beautiful lives lost
The mullahs in #Iran think they can simply call it an "accident" & case closed?
NO! HELL NO!
If this was any other country, the president or prime minister & many others would be forced to resign.
The dictator @khamenei_ir must be held to account.

@khamenei_ir #Iran's IRGC Aerospace chief:
"We had reports of cruise missiles fired at Iran. It was an individual's error that caused this tragedy."
He also blames "jammed communications."
My take:
He is very careful to portray a low-level mistake to safeguard senior regime officials.
