There’s a museum of the incident with a reconstruction of the plane crash in Italy. Absolutely worth a visit. inbologna.it/the-museum-for-memory-of-ustica-in-b…

It was known for a long time that the plane was downed by a missile, with the French being suspects.

Not too surprising, that’s only 5 years before the French government did a bit of lethal state-sponsored terrorism over here because some people dared to suggest that nuking the pacific is a cunt move.

Look, they said sorry okay.

Wait…

In the aftermath of the crash, French, U.S. and NATO officials denied any military activity in the skies that night.

Anyways. All is forgiven between friends.

Former two-time Premier Giuliano Amato appealed to French President Emmanuel Macron to either refute or confirm his assertion about the cause of the crash on June 27, 1980, which killed all 81 persons aboard the Italian domestic flight.

Twas an honest mistake.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


ROME (AP) — A former Italian premier, in an interview published on Saturday, contended that a French air force missile accidentally brought down a passenger jet over the Mediterranean Sea in 1980 in a failed bid to assassinate Libya’s then leader Moammar Gadhafi.

Former two-time Premier Giuliano Amato appealed to French President Emmanuel Macron to either refute or confirm his assertion about the cause of the crash on June 27, 1980, which killed all 81 persons aboard the Italian domestic flight.

Some say a bomb exploded aboard the Itavia jetliner on a flight from Bologna to Sicily, while others say examination of the wreckage, pulled up from the seafloor years later, indicate it was hit by a missile.

“The most credible version is that of responsibility of the French air force, in complicity with the Americans and who participated in a war in the skies that evening of June 27,” Amato was quoted as saying.

“I ask myself why a young president like Macron, while age-wise extraneous to the Ustica tragedy, wouldn’t want to remove the shame that weighs on France,” Amato told La Repubblica.

Amato, who is 85, said that in 2000, when he was premier, he wrote to the then presidents of the United States and France, Bill Clinton and Jacques Chirac, respectively, to press them to shed light on what happened.
