German flight to Tehran turns around

The aircraft will return to Frankfurt airport, the airline said. “The background to this is a changed assessment of the security situation for the airspace around Tehran Airport.” It is unclear whether US/Canada passengers are also on board.

Avoiding the airspace in Iran has to do with the news that Americans have strong suspicions that the Iranians are responsible for the crash of Boeing 737-800. Trump confirmed Thursday coverage in American media. Officials in the White House think that Iran accidentally hit the device through a defense system Wednesday morning.
