US Secretary of State John Kerry has laid out what he says is overwhelming evidence of Russian complicity in the shooting down of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 over Ukraine, the Guardian reports.
Kerry says it was quite clear that the missile system used to bring the plane down had been transferred directly from Russia.
Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was brought down on Thursday by what is believed to have been a surface-to-air missile, killing all 298 passengers and crew. The Boeing 777 was flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
Moscow denies involvement in shooting down the airliner and has blamed the Ukrainian military. But Washington and its allies point the finger at the pro-Russian separatists who have Moscow's backing and have been accused of obstructing access to the crash sites.
Kerry says the United States had seen supplies moving into Ukraine from Russia in the last month, including a 150-vehicle convoy of armoured personnel carriers, tanks and rocket launchers given to the separatists.
