AN international team of investigators has determined that the missile which blew Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 out of the sky nearly four years ago came from a Russia-based military unit.

International representatives, including Australian Federal Police, today gathered in the Netherlands to announce they had found “convincing evidence” that MH17 was shot down by a Buk-TELAR missile from Russia.

Wilbert Paulissen of the Dutch National Police said that detailed analysis of video images showed the missile was from the Russian military’s 53rd anti-aircraft missile brigade based in the Russian city of Kursk.

The top Dutch investigator said the international Joint Investigation Team “has come to the conclusion that the BUK-TELAR that shot down MH17 came from 53rd Anti-aircraft Missile Brigade based in Kursk in Russia”.

“The 53rd Brigade forms part of the Russian armed forces,” he said.

Stay ignorant.

Since when is requesting military grade satellite evidence to support the JIT/social media conjecture a sign of ignorance?

Were you even aware such data existed?

...and speaking of evidence, I'd also like to hear those Kiev air traffic control tower recordings which were seized by the Ukrainian Cheka and never released.

Frankly its sheeple like you that allow these deep state con jobs to be carried out in the first place.

The less you know, the more you believe.

From your quote:
Moscow neither accepts nor trusts the results of an international investigation

From my quote:
The U.S. is affirming new findings from investigators

What you edited out:

A spokesman for Russia’s defense ministry continued to deny any role in the attack and questioned the impartiality of the Joint Investigative Team’s findings.

“I remind that all data presented … in the briefing of the investigation team had two main sources — the Internet and the Ukrainian special services,” Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said, according to USA Today.
