(CNN) – A Malaysia Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, has crashed in eastern Ukraine, Russian news agency Interfax reported Thursday.
Malaysia Airlines confirmed that it lost contact with Flight 17 and that the plane’s last known position was over Ukrainian airspace, the airline said on Twitter.
The aircraft was “shot down” over Ukraine by “terrorists” operating a Buk surface-to-air missile system, according to the Facebook page of Anton Gerashchenko, adviser to the Ukrainian Interior Ministry. There were 280 passengers killed as well as 15 crew members, Gerashchenko’s post reads.
Man…journalists have it so easy nowadays.
All they have to do is look at twitter and face book and the news stories write themselves.
They don’t even take pictures anymore…just send us your pictures!
Lazy pricks.
Yeah, except the photos people tend to take aren’t as detailed as can be. Whereas photojournalists invest thousands of dollars to have the best cameras possible to catch every little inch they can. Seriously, I once worked with a man whose camera cost more than his car.
Russia can turtle their strategy to take eastern ukraine so why would they do it? Fair enough nobody can fuck with them but it still wouldnt make sense…Ukraine doing this shit? Crazy as well. Gonna go along with the trusty method of just blaming the US, they fuck up on the regular so I wouldnt be too surprised if this was like some CIA black op gone mental
Apparently Obama and Putin had a phone call about the airliner. I’m sure it went along the lines of Putin saying maybe we shot it down so fucking what and Obama saying that’s not nice…
Cameron has zero creditibility in the UK, laughed at in Europe and Obama keeps forgetting his name, wtf is this mong gonna accomplish?
Aside from the fact under his watch the glorious nation of Scotland will take independence and crucify the last bastion of the British Empire, that UKIP will reign over England in the next general election and turn the country into a nazi stronghold and ofcourse lead to the imminent withdrawl from Europe turning into a 2 world state after London gets firebombed in the ensuing riots…
Yea Cameron is a good guy :tup: They both stand united in condemnation of Russias actions cause all they can do is talk shit and lifting even a finger against Putin would be like asking for that polonium 210 spoon fed straight up the ass
