War, pro russian militia versus ukrainian forces. Blaming moscow president obama last night announced tougher sanctions and was discussing them today with russian president putin when putin informed mr. Obama of the crash. Debris is reported widely scattered indicating flight 17 was likely blown up while air borne on purpose said Vice President joe biden. Shot down, not an accident, blown out of the sky. Reporter a Ukrainian Government official charged the plane was shot down by a missile, a system used by russia and ukraine, both denying responsibility. U. S. Officials tell nbc news that u. S. Resources confirm a shot by a ground to air missile. So this is a mistake and therefore more likely to have been a ukrainian separatist shoot down with modern equipment that they didnt understand. I think there is going to be hell to pay and there should be. Reporter first the investigation. And the white house says u. S. Crash experts can help with reconstruction and black box analysis. Im steve handelsman, nbc news washington. The question is whether this was an act of terrorism or a terrible accident. Pete williams is here to help us find answers to all of this. The debris field is spread over miles and miles. That has to make it difficult for the people to figure out exactly what happened, wouldnt you think . Of course, it is night there now and will resume the investigation in the morning to the extent that they can do. It will be critical to find the black box. The fact that the debris is spread out over such a large area according to the aviation experts suggests it did blow up in the air instead of remaining intact until it hit the ground. That is another factor that is leading the u. S. To say they believe it was shot down. I should point out while there are some u. S. Officials saying they are confident it was shot down officially the government isnt saying. The Vice President said apparently shot down. So that seems to be the emerging consensus. You look at where it happened at the critical border and look at the debris and the height in which it was flying and then suddenly comes down. So all of the things put together i think there is an emerging consensus that that is what happened. There are also reports that the black box has been found. What do we know about that . The Ukrainian Government says it is not recovered. The ukrainian separatists say it has been. This is one of the issues that will have to be sorted out. You have the hostilities and the investigation that has to be done internationally. You have dutch interests because that is where the plane took off and predominantly dutch passengers. You have the malaysians. It is their plane. Yo ahave the u. S. , probably american passengers. They have not seen the passport data and only have names so far. You have all of this International Community that will want to have an objective investigation given the finger pointing between the russians and ukrainians. Will the ukrainian authorities allow an International Team . Whether or not there were americans on board that flight would that have any impact on the nature and intensity of u. S. Involvement in the investigation . If there were no americans is the u. S. Likely to step back from the investigative effort or what . Lets assume for the purpose of your question that there are americans on board we go to the same situation they went through with the malaysian crash before. The u. S. Has no authority to storm in and say we are here lets start interviewing witnesses. They have to be invited in by the authorities. One question is who are the authorities in that area . We have offered help and offered all of the ntsb assistance and other investigative resources. The question is will they take up our help and that of the International Community . The other Malaysia Airlines investigation was complicated and this has more layers of that one. At least this time they have the plane. The latest tragedy comes four months after Malaysia Airlines flight 370 disappeared. No debris or crash site from that one has been found as pete noted despite extensive search efforts. There were 239 people on board that airliner. It was traveling from kuala lumpur to beijing. There is quite a lot of shock from malaysian officials and citizens world wide tonight. Chris lawrence at the Malaysian Embassy here in northwest washington. Reporter i cant think of another instance in which one nation and one airline dealt with two major air disasters in such a short amount of time. Here it has been mostly quiet. We have seen a couple of people leave the embassy and employees going home for the night. They have been mostly quiet and very serious saying nothing. At this point allowing the Prime Minister and other senior officials in malaysia to speak for the nation. Over the past few months we have seen scenes where families packing Conference Rooms in kuala lumpur and china awaiting answers from loved ones aboard flight 370 and becoming angry and frustrated when answers did not come fast enough. We spoke with one young man whose mother works at the embassy of malaysia in washington, d. C. And says he cannot believe what he was hearing when he heard about the crash. I was shocked. I saw it on first. It said that its two things in four months and it was shot down i dont know by who. But i was pretty shocked. I was thinking it shouldnt have been Malaysia Airlines again. Malaysia seemed to sum up the feelings. What he said earlier today we are all united in tragedy. For now live in northwest d. C. We go to Pat Lawson Muse at the live desk with the ripple effect. We have a new statement from the faa saying all u. S. Based carriers have agreed to avoid the air space near the Russia Ukraine border including the area where the Malaysia Airlines flight went down today. You can see on a recent screen grab from then line flight radar 24 tracking website that there is a clear gap in flight paths over that area. Other International Airlines avoiding Ukrainian Air space include klm, royal dutch, Turkish Airlines and virgin atlantic. In april the faa told u. S. Air carriers to stay out of air space in thatregion due to the crisis in ukraine but that particular zone did not previously include todays crash site. Within the last hour malaysias Prime Minister said the route taken today had been declared safe by global aviation authority. Back to you. The u. S. Markets are keeping a close eye on whats happening out of ukraine. The dow finished down about 160 points and stocks declined sharply after first reports of the planes wreckage being found. Experts say this adds to the unsettled market conditions. If the plane was shot down it would be the fourth commercial airliner to go down under hostile fire. Back in 1988 the u. S. Military shot down an iran air flight after it was mistaken for a fighter jet. All 290 people on board the plane were killed. In 1983 the soviet union shot down a korean Airlines Flight after it strayed into soviet air space. 269 killed in that incident. And in 1978 another korean Airlines Flight forced to make an Emergency Landing after it was fired on by the soviet union. Two people died in that incident.
