Tribunal holandés condena a 3 por el derribo del avión de pasajeros sobre Ucrania.
November 17, 2022 - Un tribunal holandés condenó a tres hombres culpables por el asesinato de las 298 personas que viajaban a bordo delvuelo MH17, derribado por un misil ruso superficie-aire cuando sobrevolaba el este de Ucrania en 2014.
The three men convicted were former Russian intelligence agents Igor Girkin and Sergey Dubinskiy, and Leonid Kharchenko, a Ukrainian separatist leader. A fourth, Russian Oleg Pulatov was acquitted.
The judges ruled that it was a deliberate action to bring down a plane, even though the three found guilty had intended to shoot down a military not a civilian aircraft.
