- Iranian experts found two of the three black boxes of the Caspian Airlines' TU-154 plane that crashed during the flight from Tehran to Yerevan, reported representative of Iran's Ministry of Roads and Transportation Ahmad Majidi. Majidi mentioned that the black boxes were severely damaged, but experts are trying to decipher the information in them and are still searching for the third black box. "If we don't find any information in the black boxes, we will send them to the country where they are produced to have experts restore the information and find out the reasons behind the accident," said Majidi.
