Malaysian Airlines Tragedy:A Terror InThe Sky

Shooting down the Malaysian Airlines plane by terrorists in Ukrainian territory is really very shocking incident in modern times as298 people have lost their lives without any crime.Ukrainian crisis has ritsulted into the complete turmoil in this part of Europe and continued fight has badly damaged administrative machinery,political control and social order in this region.As explained in my blog Ukrainian crisis or Beginning of the second revolution that foul play of vested Western interest groups and counter strategy of Russian block has created a volatile situation in Ukraine.

The unfortunate Malaysian Plane MH17was on its regular flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur on the busy rout when it was shot  down by missile by Russian rebel group over Donetsk at the altitude of 33000 feets.Initially the insurgents group denied shooting down of the plane but its top leader Igor Strelkov later on admitted that rebels have shot down the plane under mistaken identity of Ukrainian AN-26 military plane. 

Malaysia had suffered badly this year as it is the second plane of its airline that has met with the tragic end.Afew months ago its flight MH370 disappeared and till today there is no clue of its disappearance.Malaysian PM has announced an enquiry into the incident and promised the people thst responsible persons will be brought to justice.There is a shok wave in the world as it is among some most dastardly acts of world airline history.In 1973 a Libyan plane was shot down killing 113 passengers,then in 1979 Air Rhodesiaand in1983Korean Airlines plane was shot down.Similarly in 1988 an Iranian plane was also dhot down killing 290 passengers.

As a result of this shooting down major airlines have changed their rout .Us has imposed harsher restrictions on Russia and assuref Malaysian government for all possible support.Majority of the passengers belong to Netherlands and Malaysia. Only one crew member is reported to be from India.UNSC has asked for an independent enquiry and guilty should be brought to justice.Ukrainian government has blamed Russian supported rebels for this dastardly act but Russia has put the blame on Ukrainian army.As this blame game continued there is uproar in the world community over this inhuman act.It is an important thing to note that why did the shooting down take place after BRICS meeting where an important decision was taken by to form BRICS BANK.Is it a move to trap Russia and put more sanctions on it?

It was also  reported that an AI plane was also behind the fateful Malaysian plane.One intrguing question is still to be answered why did International Aviation Agency allow to operate on this route when it knows thst eastern Ukraine is a war zone and such shooting down of planes was earlier reported? The Buk missile used in shooting down of the plane is used by both Russian rebels and Ukrainian military so it will be really difficult to find out who has carried out the attack.
