Four suspects took a Buk missile from a Russian military base and used the missile to attack Malaysia Airlines MH17 in a small Ukrainian town controlled by pro-Russian rebels, according to a Dutch investigation team.

But Russia has refused to take responsibility for the crash, arguing that it was blamed on Russia after Ukrainian forces backed by Western countries shot down Malaysia Airlines MH17, or that Ukrainian forces made a mistake.

The Malaysia Airlines MH17 crash occurred on July 17, 2014. The flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was hit by a Buk surface-to-air missile close to the Russian-Ukrainian border, causing the plane to crash with 283 passengers on board.
