July 17, 2014, marked a dark day in history when flight MH17 was tragically shot down over Ukraine’s Donetsk Oblast, killing 298 innocent passengers and crew members. A decade later, the quest for justice continues as the culprits remain at large.
How was the crash investigated?
Following the incident, a dedicated Joint Investigation Team (JIT) was formed, comprising investigators from multiple countries, including the Netherlands, Malaysia, Australia, Belgium, and Ukraine. Despite facing obstacles, the team meticulously pieced together evidence, eventually pinpointing the origin of the fatal missile.
The arduous pursuit led to the convicting of three individuals responsible for the downing of MH17, shedding light on the heinous act that shook the world. However, justice remains elusive as the masterminds behind this appalling crime evade accountability.
This tragic event serves as a stark reminder of the importance of upholding truth and seeking justice, even in the face of adversity. As we commemorate the lives lost on that fateful day, let us continue to strive for transparency and accountability in the pursuit of peace.
