A Boeing 777 belonging to Malaysia Airlines was shot down on Thursday in East Ukraine, in an area controlled by pro-Russian separatists.
The main accusations are brought to separatists that would have used a rocket that was provided by Russia. In turn, Moscow is accusing the Ukrainian government.
The first bodies of the victims were taken to Netherlands on Wednesday afternoon. After a ceremony was held at the airport, they were transported to a military base to be identified.
