Ukraine should have closed air space over war zone: MH17 inquiry

The wrecked cockipt of the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 is exhibited at the Gilze-Rijen airbase in the Netherlands, on October 13, 2015

Kiev should have closed the air space over eastern Ukraine because of the conflict with pro-Russian separatists, the official inquiry into the MH17 air disaster found Tuesday. "We have concluded as a precaution there was sufficient reason for the Ukrainian authorities to close the air space above the eastern part of their country," the chairman of the Dutch Safety Board, Tjibbe Joustra, told a press conference.
