The destruction by the pro-Russian separatists a Malaysian civil airplane in the sky near Donetsk, where nearly 300 people died, has brought the conflict in Ukraine to a new, international level. The entire civilized world must unite in order to disarm the terrorists, armed by Russia and warring against the lawful government of Ukraine, it was a leitmotif of the statements by the Ukrainian president Peter Poroshenko after a separatists rocket "surface-to-air" shot down a Boeing.
The destruction of the aircraft by the Russian separatists recorded radio interception, satellite intelligence data, and testimony of witnesses. Thank to radio coverage it became known exactly who and where launched a rocket. Most likely, it was a missile-defense system Anti-Air Defense -BUK, passed to the separatists from Russia.
Place of a plane crash is controlled by militants who do not let strangers there. Now they are searching for the black boxes to hide their crime, according to observers.
An extraordinary session of the UN Security Council devoted to this terrorist attack will take place today. The destruction of the aircraft was the topic of conversation between Putin and Obama. After that, Putin blamed the Ukrainian authorities for the crash of the airplane.
Russian opposition leader Boris Nemtsov called the death of the Malaysian aircraft "a terrorist attack similar to attack on September 11," laying the blame for what is happening with the separatists. -02В-
