Malaysians are still in shock the loss of another airplane that disappeared in March. There are many questions who shot the plane Ukraine. The Ukrainian government is blaming pro-Russian rebels east Ukraine. The rebels are saying they do not have the technology to shoot down an airplane flying above 10,000 metres. They blame Ukraine the tragedy. The plane was flying Amsterdam, Holland to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Air traffic controllers told the pilot that the route above Ukrainian skies was safe, even though there was fighting the ground.

All efforts are now the investigation to find what happened the flight. There are many problems with this. The crash site the village of Grabovo is in an area controlled the rebels. There are worries that investigators will not get the airplane's black box. This will provide important information the last moments the flight.
