Massacre Over the Mediterranean (Aerolinee Itavia Flight 870) (S13E06)
S13E06
On June 27, 1980, Aerolinee Itavia Flight 870 tragically plunges into the Tyrrhenian Sea close to Ustica, Italy, resulting in the loss of all 81 lives aboard. In a significant ruling on January 23, 2013, Italy’s highest criminal court determined that a missile strike was responsible for the disaster. However, this conclusion has sparked ongoing debate, with some analysts asserting that an explosion from a bomb located in the rear lavatory could have been the actual cause. To date, no conclusive accident report has been released.
