The two are trading blame, but I think Ukraine just took responsibility for it? I'm not sure.
This will likely... escalate matters. :| As if they needed escalation.

Another one?
Ugh, it irks me when this things happen and I'm a Malaysian...
And it's the same model as MH370...
Looks like the Russian Separatists mistook the plane for a Ukrainian cargo plane. http://i.imgur.com/IMaKN3h.jpg
Translation according to reddit:
AN-26 airplane was shot down near Torez, it fell somewhere behind the mine "Progress".
We warned - do not fly in "our sky".
And here is the video proof of another "bird-fall" (bird = slang for an airplane).
Another bird fell behind the spoil tip, residential areas were not affected.
No civilians were harmed.
Very, very messed up situation.
Press conference scheduled to be held soon. 4am here in Malaysia omg..
Geeze that's messed up, we still havent gotten over the last one :|
Confirmed 27 Australians were on the plane.. such a sad situation for all the lives lost.
The whole thing is unbelievable considering it's another Malaysian airlines which was flying in a god damn conflict zone which they were warned about.
I'd only just learned about the missing Malaysian aircraft after hearing about this. That is all kinds of terrifying. :/
To be fair, the equipment needed to shoot down something from 10 kms height is not something anyone would expect rebels to have. And this plane wasn't the only one flying through the area, a lot of the companies are changing their flight routes now after this.
But gee, i sure wonder where they got something like a buk missile system, it's not like russia made those or anything
This whole thing just reeks, AFAIK some of the rebels even bragged about shooting down what they had thought to be a ukranian cargo plane.
My thoughts go out to the ones who lost loved ones.
Yet two aircraft went down in the last couple of weeks in the same area, and there was reports the rebels had captured around 10 BUKS recently (If that was reported correctly)
Looks like it was Russia anyway and hopefully these terrorists are brought to justice as our PM has vowed.
Some translations:
'Cor Pan: If it were to disappear, this is how it looks.' (Pretty obviously sarcasm)
Then some people showing their condolences, stuff like 'Very shocked by this horrible news. RIP...My heart goes out to all family and friends...'
189 Dutch people died. Various festivities and other things have been toned down or canceled entirely. The flag is hanging half-mast on every government building.

Greeaaat and it turns out the top 100 AIDs researchers were on board after attending a conference.
I just noticed I typed train instead of plane
Wow and I thought my opinion of Russia couldn't get any lower then just annoyed with there anti-lgbt laws. But honestly I'll stop my self there seeing how there is plenty of anger geared towards the Russians over this tragedy.
