The following is the full text of the message issued on January 11, 2020, according to ‎Khamenei.ir ‎

In the Name of God, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

After having been informed of the results of the investigation conducted by the General Staff ‎of the Armed Forces pertaining to the Ukrainian passenger plane, and after it was proven ‎that human error was involved in that incident, the grief stemming from the loss of the ‎deceased from that sad incident became heavier for me.‎

First of all, I deem it necessary to express my genuine sympathy and my heartfelt ‎condolences to the esteemed families of the dear victims and to ask God, the Exalted, to ‎bestow patience, tranquillity and peace of mind on them. Secondly, I order that the General ‎Staff of the Armed Forces pursue every case of possible negligence or error that may have ‎been committed in this painful incident. Thirdly, I ask the managers and officials in charge to ‎do everything in their power to prevent such incidents from recurring in the future.‎

May God, the Almighty and the Beneficent bestow His grace and mercy on the deceased, ‎and may He shower patience and reward on their family members.‎
