Footage shows people, including friends, relatives and colleagues leaving floral tributes and placing candles next to the photographs of the deceased.

"It is sad, they were young people. That’s why it’s hard, I felt that I should come. I didn’t want just to watch it in news, but come and leave floral tributes," said Vadim, one of the mourners.

The Ukrainian International Airlines' Boeing 737-800 with 176 people on board crashed shortly after take-off near Tehran's Imam Khomeini airport on Wednesday morning.
