*BREAKING NEWS* COINCIDENCE? A Malaysian 777 was shot down a few minutes ago, killing all 305 board... The plane appeared to have come down in a region of military action where Ukrainian government forces are battling pro-Russian separatists. A separate unnamed source in the Ukrainian security apparatus, quoted by Interfax, said the plane disappeared from radar at a height of 10,000 metres after which it came down near the town of Shakhtyorsk. The area is partly controlled by pro-Russian separatists who are fighting the Ukrainian army. The adviser to the Ukraine Interior Minister says passenger plane was shot down by a ground-to-air missile. On July 8, the State Aviation Administration of Ukraine closed the airspace to civilian aircraft after a military transport plane was shot down. On Thursday, Ukraine accused that a Russian fighter jet shot down a Ukrainian SU-25 fighter plane. The aircraft reportedly had to cross the Russian border at about 9:30 EDT.
