First Pictures of Dead Bodies at Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 Crash Site

There were 280 passengers and 15 crew on board. Here are some exclusive images from the crash site showing their mangled remains. The plane was flying at roughly 10,000 metres before disappearing from radar.

A Buk surface-to-air missile system captured by Ukranian rebels was used to take down the plane according to some sources.

The Boeing 777 stared to disintegrate before impact and debris are scattered in a 15 km radius.

Some witnesses say they saw naked human bodies falling from the sky.

The rebels had said they shot down a transport and apparently the 777 disappeared at the same time and near the same location.

Yes, exactly!

After news spread about the crash they quickly deleted their posts.

Someone is in deep shit right now as American citizens have fallen victim to this war and there will be huge outrage in the next few days.

"We have taken down an AN-26 aircraft. We warned them no to fly in our airspace.

These videos confirm that the bird has fallen. No one of our civilians on the ground was injured."
