    More information slowly appears.

    I saw video where Boeing 777 looking plane was shot so that right side engine got fire. It does not comply with the story so far. (when a commercial plane is hit by BUK, it's said that BUK destroys the plane immediately & totally) If the video is authentic, it would hint that the plane was (first) shot by smaller missile (Air to Air) (perhaps later finished off by BUK). UPDATE: found another version of the video, recorded Jun8 or so, (perhaps AN-26 downing from 4km)so, irrelevant.
    Plane black boxes will verify/clear if that kind of scenario happened.

    Interesting observations by Russian military:

    (I think that is perhaps the best argumentation by Russian military that I have ever seen. Usually they seem to be just bullying around, this time it would seem they know some stuff.)
