Bellingcat ответил на доклад России об обстоятельствах гибели рейса МН17Independent journalists criticized the Russian position.

A group of journalists of Bellingcat comment provided by Russia technical information about anti-aircraft missile complex “Buk”, which the Russians had prepared for the Dutch Commission.

In response to the published “Novaya Gazeta” text”, project Manager Bellingcat Eliot Higgins reacted emotionally to criticism “Almaz-Antey” in the address, calling the text of the Russian Corporation “miserable chatter”.

Recall that according to the “Almaz-Antey”, the Malaysian Boeing-777 flying flight MH17 on 17 July 2014 over the Donetsk region, was allegedly shot down by anti-aircraft missile complex, 9M38M1 missile complex “Buk-M1 was fired from the area South of the village zaroshchens’ke, controlled by Ukrainian army, while the missile itself was a modification of the old, had not the armament of the Russian army.

At the same time, the experts group Bellingcat indicate that, if data provided by the “Almaz-Antey”, true, strange, so there is no direct evidence, no eyewitnesses, while the version on the start-up of rockets from the occupied Snowy found a lot of evidence.

It clearly shows the designation — 9M38M1.
