MELBOURNE (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Delegates at a global AIDS conference vowed on Saturday to renew efforts to end the deadly disease in honour of the commitment of colleagues killed when a Malaysian Airlines plane came down over Ukraine.

The Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777 was en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur when it was apparently brought down by a surface-to-air missile on Thursday in an area of eastern Ukraine where Moscow-backed rebels have been fighting government forces.
