MOSCOW, Sept. 27 (UPI) -- The Russian Defense Ministry said Tuesday its data confirms that, if Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was shot down in 2014, Ukrainian forces did it.
The information comes days before an expected report from the Joint Investigation Team's criminal investigation, led by the Dutch prosecutor's office. The Boeing 777 was traveling over Ukrainian air space to Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam on July 17, 2014, when it crashed, killing 298 people.
