KAL Flight 007 was a Korean Air Lines civilian airliner shot down by Soviet interceptors on 9/1/83, over the Sea of Japan, near Moneron Island just west of Sakhalin Island over prohibited Soviet airspace. All 269 aboard were killed, including Lawrence McDonald, a sitting member of the United States Congress. The aircraft was en route from NYC via Anchorage to Seoul when it strayed into prohibited Soviet airspace because of a supposed navigational error.
