Kuala Lumpur, Ramadan 25, 1435, July 22, 2014, SPA -- Pro-Russian rebels on Tuesday delivered the flight data and voice recorders of downed passenger plane MH17 to Malaysian officials, a senior government official said, according to dpa. The two black boxes were handed over to a Malaysian team in Donetsk by pro-Russian separatists, said Khairil Hilmi Mokhtar, leader of Malaysia's special investigation team in Kiev. "We will take them to the Netherlands before bringing them back home to Malaysia," said Khairil Hilmi, according to Malaysia's state-run Bernama news agency. The instruments were given to a group of Malaysian officials led by National Security Council member Colonel Mohamed Shukri and appeared to be in good condition, a government source in Kuala Lumpur said. Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 crashed in eastern Ukraine on Thursday, killing all 298 people aboard. It was suspected to have been shot down by a missile. --SPA 13:51 LOCAL TIME 10:51 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
