MH17: Berlin knew risk of flying above Ukraine, say reports


FRANKFURT: Berlin knew the risks of flying over war-torn east Ukraine before Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH17 was shot out of the sky last year but did not inform German airlines, local media reported on Sunday.

Investigators are still trying to determine who was responsible for downing the Boeing 777 in July last year, killing all 298 passengers and crew on board.
