澳大利派人保护乌克兰东部坠机现场

Australia has sent 50 police officers to London in anticipation of deploying them to eastern Ukraine to secure the Malaysian plane crash site as part of a proposed international team.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott said foreign ministers from Australia and The Netherlands will go to Kyiv to iron out the details of deploying such a team, under U.N. authority, to secure the crash site in rebel-held east Ukraine.

Meanwhile, two more planes were due to take off from Ukraine for the Netherlands, carrying dozens more victims of the shoot down of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 last week.

Tens of thousands of mourners in the Netherlands held memorial services and ceremonies, as the first bodies from Flight MH17 arrived in the country on Wednesday.  One hundred ninety-three of the victims were Dutch.

Earlier Thursday, Russia called on the United States to prove that the passenger jet was shot down by an SA-11 surface-to-air missile fired by Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine. Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov asked the U.S. to produce proof that it has technical data and satellite photos to back the accusation.

U.S. intelligence analysts have concluded that a Russian SA-11 "Buk" missile downed the aircraft and that ill-trained rebels likely fired the missile believing the aircraft was Ukrainian.

澳大利亚总理阿博特说，澳大利亚和荷兰的外长将前往基辅，与乌克兰敲定人员部署的细节。联合国授权保护反政府武装控制地区内的坠机现场。

与此同时，星期四又有两架飞机从乌克兰起飞，将上周马航客机遇难者的几十名遗体运往荷兰。

星期三第一批遗体抵达荷兰时，荷兰成千上万人为死者举行了悼念仪式。被击落的马航班机上共有298人，其中193人是荷兰人。 

另外，俄罗斯星期四早些时候要求美国提供证据，证明马航班机是被俄罗斯支持的乌克兰东部分离分子发射的俄制SA-11地对空导弹击落的。俄罗斯国防部副部长安托诺夫要求美国拿出技术证据和卫星图像来。
美国情报分析人士认为，马航班机是被俄罗斯制造的SA-11地对空导弹击落的。 他们认为缺乏训练的乌克兰反政府武装很可能把马航班机误认为是乌克兰飞机。
