Ukraine welcomes JIT findings on MH17

PETALING JAYA: The findings of the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) investigating the 2014 downing of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 are welcomed by the Ukrainian government, said Olexander Nechytaylo, the Ambassador of Ukraine to Malaysia.

"The JIT has made significant progress, and today some questions that had been on people’s minds, especially the victims’ next of kin, have been answered. It provides clear evidence that the plane was shot down by a surface-to-air missile, launched from the territory controlled by the Russian-backed separatist militia," said Nechytaylo.
