Russian Maker Of The Buk Missile Says MH17 Was Shot Down By An Older Missile That Is In The Ukrainian Service



Moscow Times: MH17 Was Not Shot Down by Russian Missile – Russian Defense Firm

The Russian maker of an anti-aircraft missile widely thought to be behind the destruction of a civilian airliner over east Ukraine last summer presented evidence Tuesday that suggested that Ukrainian forces were responsible for the attack.

Almaz-Antey, Russia's largest defense contractor, announced its findings as the basis for a court appeal against EU sanctions placed on the firm last year in the wake of the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 disaster, which caused the death of 298 people.

  1. WNU Editor,

    I don't think that this one is ever going to be solved, it has too much in common with the Itavia Flight 870,

  2. Jay .... I forgot about that incident .... and I worked at ICAO (UN's International Civil Aviation organization) for a few years. But yes .... among the professionals there will be a debate, but among the politicians and the media .... their minds have already been made up.
