MH17: Intelligence agencies still slow to share threat data, says European Aviation chief

LONDON/BRUSSELS: A year after the downing of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH17, Europe's intelligence agencies remain reluctant to share information that might help airlines detect threats from ground-based conflicts in future, the region's aviation safety chief said on Friday.

MH17, flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, was shot down over eastern Ukraine on July 17 last year during fighting between Ukrainian troops and pro-Russian separatist rebels.
