MH17 Ukraine disaster: Dutch report blames missile

Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 crashed as a result of a Russian-made 9M38 Buk missile, the Dutch Safety Board says.

Dutch detectives have ended that a Russian-made surface to air missile shot down Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 over war-racked eastern Ukraine last year.

The missile hit the front left of the plane, as a result of which part of the plane broke off.

Flight MH17 was flying at 33,000 feet over war-racked eastern Ukraine, en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, when it was shot out of the sky on July 17, 2014. Passengers' bodies and debris from the plane fell over three villages outside of Donetsk, the regional capital.
