Russia cites 'information war' in Malaysian crash
Report suggested that Flight MH17 was likely struck by multiple 'high-energy objects'
United Nations: Russia's U.N. ambassador says Ukrainian rebels and the Russian government were blamed for involvement in the crash of a Malaysian Airlines jet in July without any proof as part of "an information war."
Vitaly Churkin told the U.N. Security Council Friday that the only way a transparent and objective international investigation can be carried out is with the participation of the United Nations.
Churkin, who called for the council meeting, said the preliminary report into the crash released Sept. 9 "is not really informative." It said the Boeing 777 was likely struck by multiple "high-energy objects from outside the aircraft," causing its breakup over eastern Ukraine.
He said Russia has new questions stemming from the report and called for the release of alleged information on what happened, including satellite photos.
