According to RIA Novosti, a representative of the joint investigation team to investigate the crash of Boeing also noted that "the investigation zone in the east of Ukraine still remains inaccessible to the research group."

On June 19, a representative of the SSG said during a press conference about four suspects in the case of the Malaysian liner crash in Donbas.

The Russian Foreign Ministry called the accusatory accusations of the “participation” of Russians in the crash of the MN17 flight.

They also stressed that the video materials on which the investigation relies in their conclusions are rigged.

Boeing 777 of Malaysia Airlines, on the flight MN17 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, crashed on July 17, 2014 in the Donetsk region of Ukraine. Everyone who was on board died: 283 passengers and 15 crew members.
