AMSTERDAM: Trucks carrying wreckage from Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 crossed into the Netherlands overnight where investigators waited to try and rebuild the airliner almost five months after it crashed.

Relatives of the dead passengers and crew waited outside the Dutch airforce base in the southern town of Gilze-Rijen where the wreckage was due to arrive later in the afternoon.
