    International investigators have arrived at the crash site of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, after rebels in eastern Ukraine allowed them access.


    Some 30 monitors arrived by helicopter at the scene near the village of Grabovo where the plane, carrying 298 people, crashed on Thursday.


    The UN Security Council has now begun an emergency meeting in New York.

    Winnipeg - A candlelight vigil was held July 17 on the steps on the Manitoba legislative building to honour those on board Malaysia Airlines flight MH17

    About 40 people, including members of the local Ukrainian-Canadian community, laid about 300 candles on the front steps of the Manitoba legislature on Thursday evening.

    The event aimed to "pay a moment of silence and just say a last goodbye to all the fallen victims," said Ivan Marynovsky, one of the organizers.

    Lynn, I watched that vid yesterday - along with lots of other info about which side has what type of weaponry where. Didn't post anything here yet, because so much yet is 'speculation' and I didn't want to show any bias.

    If the Russians took the first black box, then I doubt anyone else is ever going to get that info.
    The intercepted phone recording isn't a fabrication, so I felt it deserved to be included in this conversation. As for being biased? Russia has invaded our home country. He's blaming our home country for downing that flight! So yes, I am biased: I trust putin and his military about as far as I could hoist and toss the bug#er! He's the epitome of evil!

    CNN interviewed a woman who missed that flight. She was visibly shaken, holding her infant, saying she was given a second chance.
    Can you imagine?

    A Dutch passenger posted a photo of the plane he was about to board with the caption: "this is the plane, in case it goes down". So many sad stories emerging.......

    A couple has lost their three children and their grandfather on the flight. The parents are still in the Netherlands and the grandfather had taken the kids to see their parents and were returning before the start of the new school year. Absolutely tragic.

    thank you for posting the updates on the victims everyone. That young man from Ajax really hit home for me, his life was so full of promise, as well as seeing the faces of those 3 young Australian kids and their Grampa.....such senseless loss.

    MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladmir Putin says Ukraine bears responsibility for the crash of a Malaysian airliner.


    A Kremlin statement early Friday said Putin opened a meeting with his economic advisers by calling for a moment of silence over the crash.



    Then, he said, "This tragedy would not have happened if there were peace on this land, if the military actions had not been renewed in southeast Ukraine. And, certainly, the state over whose territory this occurred bears responsibility for this awful tragedy."
    i think as it seems most do that bringing down flight MH17 was a mistake by pro-russian forces.
    and of course they got the means to from russia.
    putin's 'logic' is very odd (then again,,,) does he suggest the us is to be blamed for 9/11?
    or --- i can't bring myself to look at all the other events that have happened, over a territory.

    so many sad stories one hears on news - including now how people can not recover bodies.
    one thing i seem to think of is that the rocket hit so fast (faster than the speed of light i heard)
    no way they knew, felt, could even think,,, before,,,, sighing.
    wishing countries would step up and do something - even simple like boycott russia.
