Dutch prosecutors accused Russia on Tuesday of trying to sabotage the investigation into the downing of Malaysian Airlines Flight 17 in Ukraine in 2014, saying this cast "a dark shadow" over the impending trial of four suspects in the crash.
Pre-trial hearings began in Amsterdam on Monday. Prosecutors say the defendants - three Russians and a Ukrainian - helped arrange the Russian missile system used to shoot down MH17, a civilian aircraft.
All 298 people on board were killed. Most of the passengers were Dutch nationals.
