The Malaysian Boeing 777 crashed on July 17, 2014 in eastern Ukraine while flying to Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam. All 298 people aboard died. A joint investigation team of Dutch, Australian, Ukrainian, Belgian and Malaysian experts claimed the jet had been downed by a Buk missile system brought from Russia.
