The United States extended condolences to families of the 168 people
killed in the crash of a Caspian Airlines plane in northwestern Iran.

"The United States extends it condolences to the families of those who
lost their lives in the crash of a Caspian Airlines plane carrying
passengers from Tehran, Iran to Yerevan, Armenia," State Department
spokesman Ian Kelly said in a statement.

Kelly said the State Department was working through the U.S. Embassy
in Yerevan and the Swiss Protecting Power in Iran to determine whether
any American citizens were on board.
