Commemorations Mark 10-Year Anniversary of MH17 Disaster

ai generated text

A decade has passed since Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 was shot down over Ukraine, resulting in the deaths of 298 people. The majority of victims were Dutch nationals (193), with dozens of Australian citizens or residents also killed. In response to the tragedy, Australia and the Netherlands have initiated legal proceedings against the Russian Federation. A memorial service was held in Amsterdam to mark the anniversary, while ceremonies took place later on Wednesday at Vijfhuizen in the Netherlands, near Schiphol Airport. Additionally, a memorial was held at Parliament House's Great Hall in Canberra, Australia.

    Penny Wong
    Australian Foreign Ministry
    1. You have lost so much. But you are not alone in your loss. We are with you.
    2. The case will continue and we will not be deterred in our commitment to hold Russia to account.
    3. Today, on behalf of the Australian government, I recommit again to our collective pursuit of truth, justice and accountability for the outrages perpetrated on 17th July, 2014.
    4. Ten years ago, we woke to news as incomprehensible now as it was then: 298 lives taken; 298 voyages ended, yet forever incomplete; 38 who called Australia home, one of the worst Australian peacetime losses of life.

    1. Your presence here today is a reminder that none of us are alone in marking our grief.
    2. We won't let this go until we've brought Russia to account.
    3. One of the main messages in the speech that I'm going to give today is a message of sorrow, but equally a message that Australia is determined, in the memory of those who died, to continue to bring to justice all those responsible.
