Ukraine crisis. News in Brief. Thursday 30 July [Ukrainian sources]
More reaction in the Australian press====
Russia 'compounds atrocity' with Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 veto

Prime Minister Tony Abbott has described as "outrageous" Russia's veto of a United Nations resolution to investigate the shooting down of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17.
Russia vetoed the resolution on Thursday, despite insisting it wanted a "rapid determination of guilt", ratcheting up tensions over the disaster in eastern Ukraine last year which claimed 298 lives.
"Its actions reinforce concerns Russia is protecting the perpetrators and continuing to assault the sovereignty of Ukraine," Mr Abbott said.

By way of comparison, I looked at the Russian press. Very little if anything about Russia blocking the Tribunal.
You have to look really hard to find anything. Top Gear reforming on Amazon - yes. Russia's UN veto. And reaction of the world - nothing.
Hear no evil. See no evil. Speak no evil.

[Looks fairly convincing, although very early days, of course. Maintenance manual seems to suggest the same number.
And only one 777 is missing in the world... ]
