US experts to help investigate Boeing crash without leaving Kyiv

A group of 12 U.S. military experts has arrived in Kyiv to help international experts investigate the downing of Malaysia Airlines MH17.
This was announced by Pentagon Press Secretary Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby, the Pentagon’s press service reported.
“At the request of the State Department, the team of about 12 service members will assess, advise and provide recommendations to the U.S. embassy and their staff about possible U.S. support to the Netherlands, Australia, Malaysia and other countries that are conducting Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 recovery operations,” Kirby said.
The experts will provide expertise in recovery operations – specifically communications, logistics and surveying – and they will not leave Kyiv, Kirby noted.
