Today's Video Focus: Iran has admitted "unintentionally" shooting down a Ukrainian passenger
jet, killing all 176 people on board.
An investigation found that "missiles fired due to human error",
President Hassan Rouhani said. He described the crash as an
"unforgivable mistake".
The military said the jet turned towards a sensitive site belonging to
Iran's Revolutionary Guards and was then mistaken for a cruise missile.
Iran had previously rejected suggestions that it was to blame.
