newspaper: Military transport reported shot down over eastern Ukraine at 6500 meters altitude.
Malaysia Airlines: They won’t shoot at an airliner. It’s illegal.
newspaper: If true, it took a serious weapon system.
Malaysia Airlines: Lightning doesn’t strike twice in the same year.
newspaper: U.S. and European air safety authorities—
Malaysia Airlines: —don’t pay for my fuel.

clue:
