⬛️ On November 17, 2022, The Hague District Court delivered a verdict on the downing of the Malaysia Airlines plane eight years ago, on July 14, 2014, near Donetsk. Then, pro-Russian militants shot down the passenger jet MH17, which became the deadliest air disaster of the 21st century. As a result, 298 people died, including 80 children - citizens of the Netherlands, Malaysia, Australia, Indonesia, Great Britain, Belgium, Germany and others. ⚠️Based on the collected evidence, flight MH17 was brought down by a Russian Buk surface-to-air missile of the 53rd anti-aircraft missile brigade of the Russian Armed Forces, delivered from Russia to the occupied part of Donetsk Oblast and after launching the missile, returned to Russia. More details are in our post.
