Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 News Update: New Evidence Surface as the Investigation Continues [VIDEO+REPORT]

After the ill fate of Malaysia Airlines flight 17, authorities have discovered a very crucial evidence which proves that the aircraft has been really shot down and is believed to possibly determine the responsible people for the tragic attack.

Latest news about the aircraft that crashed in the eastern part of Ukraine suggests that 'shrapnel-like, almost machine gun-like holes' have been detected on the parts of the plane. According to the spokesman of the mission from the Organization for Security and Cooperation Michael Bociurkiw, Malaysian aviation security officials have found and examine the hole that have been found in two separate pieces of the fuselage. The recent discovery is said to be a crucial evidence to figure out what really struck down the said aircraft.

Although the damage to the Malaysia Airlines flight 17 has been already located, it is still believed to be not totally enough to determine the ones who attacked the jet. According to the Wall Street Journal, even finding the actual shrapnel will still be hard for the authorities to determine who fired the said aircraft. If the actual shrapnel will be found, chemical analysis can be carried out to determine what kind of missile has been used to take down the commercial plane.

Meanwhile, the United States reportedly detected a launch of the specific missile that struck down the Malaysia Airlines flight 17. According to the report released on Tuesday, the US intelligence was able to track the missile that was launched from a geographic area controlled by the Russian separatists in Ukraine. Many believe that armed rebels backed and trained by Russia are the ones who struck down the jet.

Although it seems like the investigation is quite near in figuring where the missile came before it shot down Malaysia Airlines flight 17, it is still a huge mystery who pulled the trigger.
