Pro-Russian separatists on Tuesday handed over the two black boxes of the airliner shot down in Ukraine to Malaysian officials.
According to AFP the separatists said they agreed with a ceasefire announced in a 10-kilometer diameter around the crash site. This ceasefire will allow international experts begin evaluating the remains of the plan.
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razzaq has travelled to eastern Ukraine to negotiate with the head of the pro-Russian separatists.
