Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 was shot out of the sky over Eastern Ukraine in July 2014. Investigators blame four pro-Russian military officers.

Flight MH17 was shot out of the sky over Ukraine in July 17, 2014, five years ago Wednesday. The disaster killed 298 people. World leaders were immediately suspicious of Russia, and investigators concluded in 2018 that the plane was downed by a Russian military missile. The plane was flying over an area held by pro-Russian separatists that want to take the region out of Ukraine, but Russia has long denied any involvement in the attack and global tensions began to cool.
