Armed clashes have intensified in the area after the aerial catastrophe, despite international requests for a ceasefire that would allow a proper investigation on site
On Monday, President Petro Poroshenko ordered the Ukrainian armed forces to cease fire and stop any military operations within a 40km radius around the site where the Boeing 777 belonging to Malaysia Airlines has crashed, reported AFP and EFE.
Armed clashes have intensified in the area after the aerial catastrophe, despite international requests for a ceasefire that would allow a proper investigation on site. Sunday, a commission from the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) arrived in Kiev, but the experts have yet to visit the crash site, which is located in an area controlled by pro-Russian separatists near the Grabovo village, in the Donetsk province, due to security risks.
