Russia could hand the data available to it about the crash of the Malaysian Airlines Boeing over to the international commission, said speaker of the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Andriy Lysenko.

“We know that Russia published an account of the air crash yesterday.
All of these materials could be handed over to the special
international commission for scrutiny and, probably, for use in its
work,” Lysenko said at a press briefing in Kyiv on Tuesday, July 22.

He said the international investigation is led by the Netherlands and
assisted by UN and the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO).

The Russian Defense Ministry published a report on the crash of the Malaysian Boeing on July 21.

The information provided on the Defense Ministry’s official website,
includes objective monitoring data, received by the Rostov zonal center
of the Single Air Traffic Organization System, a map of Ukrainian air
defense means deployed near Donetsk, the number of Ukrainian air defense
intelligence radars located near the disaster area, and satellite
images showing air defense systems’ location at different times.
