MH17 crash: MAS plane crashes in Ukraine
HRABOVE, Ukraine (Reuters): A Malaysia Airlines plane was brought down over eastern Ukraine on Thursday, killing all 295 people aboard and sharply raising the stakes in a conflict between Kiev and pro-Moscow rebels in which Russia and the West back opposing sides.
Ukraine accused "terrorists" - militants fighting to unite eastern Ukraine with Russia - of shooting down the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 with a heavy, Soviet-era SA-11 ground-to-air missile as it flew from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
Leaders of the rebel Donetsk People's Republic denied any involvement, although around the same time their military commander said his forces had downed a much smaller Ukrainian transport plane. It would be their third such kill this week.
The scale of the disaster affecting scores of foreigners could prove a turning point for international pressure to resolve a crisis that has claimed hundreds of lives in Ukraine since pro-Western protests toppled the Moscow-backed president in Kiev in February and Russia annexed Crimea a month later.
Reuters journalists saw burning and charred wreckage bearing the red and blue Malaysia insignia and dozens of bodies strewn in fields near the village of Hrabove, 40 km (25 miles) from the Russian border near the rebel-held regional capital of Donetsk.
Despite the shooting down of several Ukrainian military aircraft in the area in recent months, including two this week, and renewed accusations from Kiev that Russian forces were taking a direct part, international air lanes had remained open.
MAS said air traffic controllers lost contact with flight MH-17 at 1415 GMT as it flew over eastern Ukraine towards the Russian border, bound for Asia with 280 passengers and 15 crew aboard.
Flight tracking data indicated it was at its cruising altitude of 33,000 feet when it disappeared.
That would be beyond the range of smaller rockets used by the rebels to bring down helicopters and other low-flying Ukrainian military aircraft - but not of the SA-11 system which a Ukrainian official accused Russia of supplying to the rebels.
"I was working in the field on my tractor when I heard the sound of a plane and then a bang," one local man at told Reuters at Hrabove, known in Russian as Grabovo.
"Then I saw the plane hit the ground and break in two. There was thick black smoke."
An emergency worker said at least 100 bodies had been found so far and that debris was spread over 15km.
People were scouring the area for the black box flight recorders and separatists were later quoted as saying they had found one.
"MH-17 is not an incident or catastrophe, it is a terrorist attack," Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko tweeted.
The loss of MH17 is the second disaster for Malaysia Airlines this year, following the mysterious loss of flight MH370.
It disappeared in March with 239 passengers and crew on board on its way from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.

MH17 crash: Missile used most likely BUK or similar, says expert
PETALING JAYA: The surface-to-air missile (SAM) system suspected to have caused the crash of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH17 is most likely the Soviet-designed BUK, and not a shoulder-fired missile.
According to a CNN report quoting military analyst Rick Francona, the shoulder-fired missiles used by rebels and separatist groups could be ruled out as these weapons do not have the ability to reach 30,000 feet, the altitude at which MH17 was flying when all contact was lost with it on Thursday night
The former United States Air Force lieutenant colonel said that such man-portable missiles could at best only reach 15,000 feet.
"This would indicate a surface-to-air missile or an air-to-air missile, and I think a surface-to-air missile is probably the best guess right now," he said, adding that such SAM systems like the BUK would be in the arsenal of Russian forces on the other side of the Ukrainian border.
Francona said that the BUK would be more than capable of shooting down an aircraft travelling at 30,000 feet.
MH17 disappeared from radar screens in eastern Ukraine at around 1415 GMT, hours after the Boeing 777, bound for Kuala Lumpur, had taken off from Amsterdam's Schiphol airport.
The Boeing 777 is believed to have been accidentally shot down 50km from the Ukraine-Russia border.
The CNN report also quotes Retired Brigadier General Kevin Ryan, director of the Defence and Intelligence Project at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard University as saying that the BUK, known as the SA-11 to Nato forces is operated by both the Russian and Ukrainian military.
However, Ryan said it was unlikely that the missile was fired by pro-Russia separatists due to the sophistication of the BUK system.
"It takes a lot of training and a lot of coordination to fire one of these and hit something.This is not the kind of weapon a couple of guys are going to pull out of a garage and fire," he said, concluding that if MH17 was shot down, a professional military force was responsible.
Similar views were shared by IHS Janes Americas editor Dan Wasserbly, who said a BUK battery would consist of several vehicles – a command post vehicle, a radar vehicle, several self-propelled launchers, loader vehicles and even more vehicles to carry new missiles to the batteries as necessary.
Sebelum MH17 berlepas dari AMS, company kena hantar Flight Plan dulu, yang mengandungi routes to follow, aircraft type n registration, endurance, total person on board, equipment carried. Bila Flight Plan tu dah approved, baru la boleh berlepas. Sekiranya route yang dipilih ada conflict atau melalui ruang udara yang tak dibenarkan oleh mana mana negara, mereka tak akan dapat clearance untuk berlepas sehingga route yang lain di rancang..
In the air, setiap controller negara negara yang di lalui bertanggung jawab untuk memberitahu pilot sekiranya ada berlaku conflict atau perubahan kepada restriction pada ruang udara masing masing. sekiranya tak selamat lagi untuk dilalui, ATC akan mengarahkan pilot untuk mengubah hala laluan atau ketinggian . Pilot tak boleh sesuka hati mengubah haluan dan ketinggian tanpa kebenaran dari ATC.
terbang di atas restricted airspace macam kat Ukraine ni adalah perkara biasa pada mana mana airline.. as long as ada Flight Plan and Clearance, its good to go.

RUKUN IMAN ADA ENAM PERKARA :
1 ) BERIMAN KEPADA ALLAH SWT
Beriman kepada Allah s.w.t merupakan Rukun Iman yang pertama, yang menjadi dasar keimanan seseorang itu. Beriman kepada Allah s.w.t beerti wajib mempercayai Allah s.w.t itu ada, Ia Maha Berkuasa, Maha Mencipat dan Maha Mengetahui segala apa yang ada di langit, di udara, di muka bumi dan juga di lautan. Dia adalah Maha Esa, yakni tunggal dan tidak menyerupai dan tidak diserupai oleh sesuatu.
Seperti firman-Nya yang bermaksud :
"Katakanlah wahai Muhammad, bahawa Allah itu satu. Allah tempat segala makhluk bergantung. Allah tidak beranak dan tidak pula diperanakkan. Dan tidak sesiapapun yang setara atau seumpama dengan Allah."
(Surah al-Ikhlas 1 - 4)
2) BERIMAN KEPADA MALAIKAT
Beriman kepada malaikat beerti wajib bagi setiap orang Islam mengetahui bahawa malaikat adalah makhluk yang Allah s.w.t jadikan daripada cahaya dan boleh berupa berbagai bentuk, tidak bersifat seperti sifat manusia. Malaikat juga menjalankan perintah Allah s.w.t dengan taat dan patuh. Jumlah malaikat adalah terlalu banyak dan kita sebagai umat Islam wajib mengetahui 10 daripadanya.
3) BERIMAN KEPADA RASUL
Beriman kepada Rasul dan Nabi merupakan rukun Iman yang ketiga. Bagi orang Islam wajiblah yakin dan percaya bahawa Allah s.w.t telah mengutuskan para Rasul dan Nabi kepada manusia di dunia ini bagi menunjukkan jalan ke arah kebenaran dan kebahagian di dunia dan di akhirat. Jumlah Nabi dan Rasul yang wajib diketahui adalah seramai 25 orang.
4) BERIMAN KEPADA KITAB
Beriman kepada kitab Allah bererti kita wajib beriktikad dan yakin dengan sebenar-benarnya bahawa sesungguhnya Allah s.w.t mempunya beberapa kitab suci yang merupakan firman Allah s.w.t yang hakiki. Diturunkan melalui wahyu yang disampaikan melalui perantaraan malaikat Jibril a.s. Sejak Zaman Nabi Adam a.s sehinnga kepada Nabi Muhammad s.a.w, jumlah kitab suci yang diturunkan adalah sebanyak 104 iaitu 100 buah suhuf dan 4 buah kitab suci.
5) BERIMAN KEPADA HARI AKHIRAT
Percaya kepada hari akhirat ialah kita wajib beriktikad dan meyakini bahawa akan adanya hari akhirat atau hari kiamat (pembalasan) di mana pada hari itu semua manusia akan dibangunkan kembali di padang Mahsyar untuk menerima hukuman berdasarkan segala amal perbuatan mereka semasa mereka hidup di muka bumi Allah s.w.t ini.
Tanda-tanda kecil akan kedatangan hari akhirat :
Sedikit orang alim dan banyak orang jahil.
Perempuan lebih ramai daripada lelaki.
Urusan agama ditakbir oleh orang yang bukan ahli.
pelacuran dan maksiat berlaku dengan meluas.
Minum arak dan benda yang memabukkan menjadi kebanggaan.

Terbit matahari dari sebelah barat.
6) BERIMAN KEPADA QADA DAN QADAR
Beriman kepada qada dan qadar disebut juga sebagai percaya kepada takdir. Iaitu seseorang itu mesti yakin dan percaya bahawa segala yang berlaku dalam alam ini semuanya ketentuan dan ketetapan Allah s.w.t.
Erti Qadar :
Ketentuan yang mesti berlaku atas tiap-tiap makhluk, sesuai dengan batas-batas yang telah ditentukan oleh Allah s.w.t sejak azali lagi sama ada yang baik atau buruk.
Qadar ada dua jenis iaitu :
Berupa aturan atau perjalanan alam ini.
Berupa untung nasib yang menimpa manusia dan makhluk lain.
Erti Qada :
Ialah pelaksanaan Allah s.w.t terhadap apa yang telah ditetapkan sejak azali lagi.
PERKARA YANG MEMBATALKAN IMAN
Mensyirikkan Allah s.w.t, iaitu menduakan Allah dengan yang lain serta bertawakkal dan bergantung kepada yang lain selain daripada Allah s.w.t seperti menyembah berhala.
Menafikan segala nikmat sama ada yang nampak atau tidak nampak adalah kurnian daripada Allah s.w.t ataupun ciptaan Allah s.w.t.
Melakukan perbuatan yang dilakukan dalam amalam keagamaan lain, yang bertentangan dengan ajaran Islam.
Mengubah hukum Allah s.w.t iaitu, menghalalkan yang haram dan mengharamkan yang halal.
Menolak atau mengubah al-Quran dan hadis. Yakni tidak mahu beiman kepada Nas al-Quran dan sunnah ataupun ingkar terhadap perintah Allah s.w.t dan menafikan kebenaran Islam.
Rakaman Perbualan Kumpulan Pemisah Akui Tembak Jatuh Pesawat Dipintas, Lapor Kyiv Post
PETALING JAYA: Dakwaan terbaharu bahawa penerbangan Malaysia (MAS) MH17 ditembak jatuh oleh kumpulan militan tersebar, dengan rakaman yang didakwa perbualan antara pegawai perisikan tentera Rusia dan anggota kumpulan pemisah sebagai bukti, lapor sebuah akhbar Ukraine berbahasa Inggeris.

Rakaman itu yang diterjemahkan oleh The Kyiv Post menunjukkan Iglor Bezler - seorang komander utama Republik Rakyat Donetsk - berbual dengan seseorang yang dipercayai kolonel bersama Angkatan Tentera Rusia, Vasili Geranin.
Bezler berkata, mereka berjaya menembak jatuh sebuah pesawat dan kemudiannya mendapati ia adalah sebuah pesawat penumpang.
Selepas itu, kedua-duanya didengar berbincang mengenai serangan tersebut dengan salah seorang daripada mereka berkata pesawat tersebut berkecai di udara.
"Kami telah menemui mayat pertama iaitu orang awam.
"Pendek kata, ia 100 peratus pesawat komersial," katanya.
Dia berkata, serpihan pesawat berkecai di sekitar kawasan perumahan dan tiada apa yang tinggal melainkan mayat, kerusi pesawat dan barangan penumpang seperti peralatan perubatan, tuala dan tisu tandas.
Katanya, mengenai pesawat yang ditembak jatuh di kawasan Snizhne-Torez, ia adalah pesawat komersial dan terhempas berhampiran Grabove.
"Terdapat banyak mayat wanita dan kanak-kanak," katanya.
Menurut laporan itu, salah satu panggilan itu dibuat kira-kira 20 minit selepas MH17 dipercayai ditembak jatuh.
