Our (Viewers Corner News) correspondent in Amsterdam reported that the murder trial of four men accused of shooting down Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 in Ukraine in 2014 will start on Monday at the Hague District Court, Netherland. The suspects are three Russians (Sergey Dubinsky, Oleg Pulatov and Igor Girkin) and one Ukrainian (Leonid Kharchenko). The suspects were charged with the murder of all 298 people that were killed in the crash. On 17 July 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 was flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur over an area where Ukrainian government forces were fighting Russian-backed rebels. The persecutors alleged that the plane was shot down by a surface-to-air missile fired from rebel-held territory and all 298 passengers on board were killed. The Netherlands lost 198 of its citizens in the crash. Russia is being held responsible for the crash as it was alleged that the missile system used to shoot down the plane came from the country’s Anti-Aircraft Brigade. Russia has denied all allegations.
