An international team of Prosecutors looking into the downing of flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine in 2014 will release its findings today. The Dutch-led team is gathering evidence for a possible criminal trial. Prosecutors from Australia, Belgium, Malaysia and Ukraine are also part of the Joint Investigation Team. <br/><br/>An earlier inquiry by the Dutch Safety Board concluded that a Russian-made Buk missile hit the plane, without saying who fired it. The Boeing 777 flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, broke apart midair, killing all 298 people on board.<br/><br/>Ukrainian Government Forces were involved in heavy fighting with pro-Russian separatists when the incident occurred on 17 July 2014. Later, the European Union and US widened sanctions on Russia over the Ukraine conflict.
