Founded on Day 160
On June 16, 2020 — the 160th day since the attack — families gathered in Toronto to formally launch the Association of Families of Flight PS752 Victims. By that date, Iran had not yet delivered the flight recorders, had destroyed the crash site, and had provided no answers. The Association was born out of that silence.
We are a group of families with diverse national, political, and religious backgrounds — united by a single demand: that those who ordered and carried out the murder of 177 innocent people be identified and brought before an impartial court. Families representing more than 100 victims joined from the outset, and our membership has continued to grow.
The road has been long. Iran has obstructed every step. Governments have wavered. But we have not stopped. We have pursued accountability in every forum available — ICAO, the ICC, the ICJ, and domestic courts in Canada. We will not rest until justice is served.
