Iran's already cleaned up the crash site w/o others investigating



Elizabeth Palmer ✔ @elizapalmer

CBS crew just visited the #Ukrainian airlines crash site west of Tehran. Nine am local time. Virtually all pieces of the plane were removed yesterday - say locals. Scavengers now picking site clean. No security. Not cordoned off. No sign of any investigators.

Unfortunately this is all too common when arrogant pigheaded windbags lead governments.

Right on top of what appears to be a playground area. Thankfully it was at night and the kids were not present while things were falling out of the sky.

Ukraine and Canada are not likely to accept this situation. Not sure what they can do about it, though...
