A Dutch court has convicted two Russians and a Ukrainian of the murders of 298 people who died in the 2014 downing of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 over Ukraine.
Three Russians and a Ukrainian face murder charges for the downing of flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine in 2014, in which 298 people were killed.
It's not clear who was operating the missile that hit the plane over eastern Ukraine in 2014, killing 298 people.
Largely forgotten today, a commission was in its time credited with preventing war between Britain and Russia.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
"The list of those that we believe should be held accountable will be confirmed."
“To arbitrarily designate a guilty party and dream up the desired results has become the norm for our Western colleagues.”
It was fired from territory held by pro-Russia rebels, international prosecutors say.
They are seeking $10 million per passenger on the downed flight.
The West and Russia think about the tragedy very differently.
Dutch investigators say the jet was downed by a Russian-made missile.
