The Bellingcat research team handed over a report to the Netherlands in which the names of the Russian military allegedly involved in the crash of the Malaysian Boeing near Donetsk are indicated. A representative of the Dutch prosecutor’s office, Wim de Brun, promised to carefully examine the report and “determine whether it can be used in a criminal investigation.”

The founder of Bellingcat, Eliot Higgins, in an interview with the Dutch television channel NOS, said that according to his data, about the 20 of the Russian military were involved in the Boeing crash. The Bellingcat participants came to the conclusion that the Buk complex, from which a rocket was fired on a liner, was delivered to the Donbass by servicemen of the second battalion of the 53-th anti-aircraft missile brigade from Kursk.

Higgins claims that the brigade commander Sergei M. and the second battalion commander Dmitry T. were involved in the crash, as well as nine lieutenants and “very experienced servicemen” trained to operate the “Buk”. The full names of the military Higgins in an interview with reporters did not disclose.

As Forum previously wrote, the Security Council of the Netherlands on October 13, 2015 presented The final report on the causes of the crash of "Boeing" near Donetsk. An investigation showed that the passenger liner was shot down by a rocket from the Buk anti-aircraft complex.

The report of the Security Council did not indicate the exact area from which the rocket was launched on the aircraft. The issue of responsibility for the catastrophe of one or another party to the conflict in the Donbass is within the purview of the investigation team that is conducting the criminal investigation. The work of this group is not yet complete.

Ukraine claimsthat the rocket was launched from an area controlled by the separatists. Russian concern Almaz-Antey, manufacturer of Buk anti-aircraft complexes, following its own investigation has concludedthat the rocket launched from the area under the control of the Ukrainian military.

Boeing passenger aircraft was shot down over Ukraine 17 July 2014 of the year. As a result of the disaster perished 298 people.
