| MH17: Ukraine crash site 'yields Russian missile parts' | |
| (35 minutes later) | |
| Fragments of a suspected Russian missile system have been found at the Flight MH17 crash site in eastern Ukraine, investigators say. | |
| The joint team in the Netherlands says the parts, possibly from a Buk surface-to-air system, are "of particular interest" and could help determine who was involved in the crash. | |
| But they say they have not proved a "causal connection" between the parts and the crash. MH17 crashed in an area held by pro-Russian rebels in July 2014, killing all 298 people on board. | |
| Ukraine and many Western countries have accused pro-Russian rebels of shooting down the plane, saying they could have used a Buk missile system supplied by Russia. | |
| Russia and the rebels deny any responsibility and say the Ukrainian military is to blame. | |
| The joint investigation team comprises representatives of the Netherlands, Ukraine, Malaysia, Australia, the UK, US and Russia. | |
| They are meeting in The Hague to discuss a draft report on the causes of the crash, the final version of which is expected to be published in October. |
