Malaysian Airlines, still reeling from the loss of MH370, have just lost another Boeing 777 with a loss of almost 300 people.

It appears that it was shot down by pro-Russian separatists using a stolen missile defence vehicle.

Putin is reported as blaming The Ukraine, saying that this is the result of their re-commencing military activity against the separarists.

More to come.
