MH17 crash scene: Images of tragedy

The bodies of at least196 MH17 crash victims have been placed inside refrigerated train carriages, according to the leadership of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic.

According to latest information 251 dead bodies and 86 parts of corps have been found.

However the report is not clear, regarding the position of the train. Some reports say that the train departed from the town of Torez, near the site of the crash, to the town of Ilovaysk and is on the way to Donetsk.

Alternative reports suggest the train is still in Torez and the decision on where it will go depends on what authorities in Kiev say.

"So far, I do not know where they plan to take them," Sergey Kavtaradze, an official representative of the prime minister of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) told the Russian News Service.
