OMG! Malaysian passenger plane shot down in Ukraine, 295 dead

Malaysian plane shut down in Ukraine

A Malaysian Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur has
crashed in eastern Ukraine. There were 280 passengers and 15
crew members on board.
Ukrainian Interior Minister said all on board are dead and that the
plane was shot down by Russian ground-to-air anti-aircraft
missiles at 33,000 feet and at 500mph.
The plane, a Boeing 777, came down near the city of Donetsk,
which is a border between Russia and Ukraine where a Ukrainian
transport plane was shot down at 21,000 feet on Monday July
13th and a military jet shot down last week from the Russian side
of the border.
The Interior Minister said pro-Russian separatists have been
hunting down their planes for weeks. 6 Ukrainian military jets
have been shot down in the last few months by the Russians.
There's been military dispute between Ukraine and Russia for a
while. And now they are shooting down passenger planes? The
plane departed Amsterdam at 12.30pm and went down around
4.30pm. See photos from the crash after the cut...
The BUK surface-to-air missile system (like this one) that is
believed to have shot down flight MH17 is an old Soviet-built
weapon designed to engage light aircraft, cruise missiles and
drones
 The flight on the tarmac of Amsterdam airport just hours before it
was shot down over Ukraine as it departed.
