On Sunday, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei expressed condolences to the governments and peoples of South Korea and Thailand, as well as to the families of the victims of the plane crash.
The tragic accident occurred at Muan International Airport in South Korea, where at least 127 passengers were killed when the plane crashed while attempting to land. The Jeju Air flight, coming from Bangkok, was carrying 181 people, including six crew members. It veered off the runway, struck a wall, and erupted in flames.

This devastating incident underscores the critical importance of aviation safety and the need for continuous improvements in aircraft technology and operational procedures to prevent such tragedies in the future.
