Rome prosecutors have reopened a probe into a mysterious plane explosion off Sicily in 1980, after former Italian President Francesco Cossiga said the plane was hit by a French missile, Italian media reported on Sunday. No one was available at the Rome prosecutor's office to confirm the report in Italian newspapers.
A Rome court last year closed the case by acquitting two former air force generals of giving false information about the disaster that killed 81 people when the plane plunged into the sea off the island of Ustica, near Sicily, 28 years ago.
