Third Annual
Ukrainian Missile
Takes Down Plane
Kiev/JTA — Ukraine's president said
Sunday that a missile fired during
military exercises was the most likely
cause of an explosion that brought
down a Sibir Airlines jet in the Black
Sea, killing 78 people, including 66
Israelis.
President Leonid Kuchma had ear-
lier denied a claim by U.S. intelli-
gence officials that a Ukrainian mis-
sile hit the jet on Oct. 4. But
Ukrainian officials have gradually
been changing their stance.
On Saturday, Ukraine's defense
minister, Olexander Kuzmuk, issued
an apology for the incident.
