#MH17: Jalur Gemilang at half-mast in respect to tragedy

KUALA LUMPURPrime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced that the government has decided to declare for the country's national flag the "Jalur Gemilang" to be flown at half-mast until Monday, in a special mandate on Friday.

The flag will fly at half-mast as the country mourns for the passengers and crew on board Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 that was suspected to have been shot down by missile strike over eastern Ukraine on Thursday.

Other countries also followed suit by having their respective flags flown at half-mast in respect of the MH17 aircraft tragedy.


A Boeing 777 belonging to Malaysia Airlines (MAS) was shot down near the Russian border, on Thursday.

The plane took off from Amsterdam at 12.15 pm local time and was expected to arrive in Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) at about 6:10 am local time.

• Will Malaysia Airlines survive?
• 298 aboard the plane with none surviving
• Delegates heading to HIV conference in Melbourne among dead

Latest

23.45 Thanks very much for following our live coverage, which is wrapping up here for the night.
22.00 A possible glimmer of good news: Obama said earlier that nearly 100 HIV researchers were feared dead. Chris Breyer, the incoming president of the International AIDS Society, said he and his team were trying to confirm the final number but they "think the actual number is much smaller"
21.35 Michael Bociurkiw, spokesman for the the OSCE's 25-strong team in Ukraine, tells CNN that bodies of the passengers are "starting to partially decompose in the hot sun". He says that the rebels don't appear to tampering with evidence but that it's difficult to know given how large the scene is.
QuoteIt basically looks like one of the biggest, or the biggest, crime scenes in the world right now, guarded by a bunch of guys in uniform with heavy fire power, who are quite inhospitable.
It's still unclear what's happened to the black boxes.
21.21 While the Ukrainian government is working closely with the West to counter Russia, it hasn't so far heeded American calls for a ceasefire. That may be partly because its forces are making progress against the separatists and Kiev is unwilling to give up the initiative.
21.05 Barack Obama said earlier that the downing of MH17 should be "a wake-up call" to Europe to get serious about confronting Russia over Ukraine after EU leaders have proved reluctant to impose tought sanctions. The Wall Street Journal reports Obama is getting his wish and Brussels is now weighing new sanctions:
OpinionEuropean governments, jolted by the downing of a passenger plane over eastern Ukraine that killed nearly 300 people, are contemplating a major expansion of sanctions on Russia as early as next week.
European Union leaders decided in recent days to expand the penalties to a broad new category of people and companies. But the apparent shooting down of a plane carrying more than 200 EU citizens has intensified a desire to act quickly and forcefully, including sanctions against oligarchs with ties to the Kremlin.
In Brussels, some diplomats described the incident as a game-changer. "It would have major consequences if it was certain it came from the rebels— major consequences," said one official.
20.48 The US has called for a ceasefire in the region to allow investigators to get to the scene and for bodies to be recovered. Doesn't sound like it's happening.
20.34 Fidel Castro, fresh from meeting with Vladmir Putin in Cuba a few days ago, is blaming Ukraine for the downing of MH17, saying it was flying over territory "under the control of the bellicose government of the chocolate king Petro Poroshenko," using the nickname of the Ukrainian president.
Unfortunately for the aging Cold War leader, the territory is in fact under the control of pro-Russian separatists.
20.22 Observers from the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) were not able to fully access the crash site and revels fired into the air as they approached. Thomas Greminger, chair of the OSCE council, said:
QuoteThey did not have the kind of access that they expected. They did not have the freedom of movement that they need to do their job. The crash site is not sealed off ... In the current circumstances, they were not able to help securing this corridor that would allow access for those that would want to investigate.
20.00 Among the dead was Quinn Schansman, a young dual Dutch-US citizen, whose Facebook page indicated he had moved to Amsterdam earlier this year. He was reportedly flying to Malaysia to join his family on holiday. Here's a tragic picture of him and his girlfriend:
-
19.44 The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) urged airlines on Friday to avoid flying over eastern Ukraine following the downing of a Malaysia Airlines flight in the region.
EASA said in a statement its safety notice affected the Simferopol and Dnepropetrovsk regions of Ukraine.
"The Agency draws the aviation community's attention to the possible existence of serious risks to the safety of international civil flights and the consequent airspace restrictions implemented," it said.
The move comes after the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration issued an order on Thursday night prohibiting American aircraft from flying over eastern Ukraine.
19.23 Our former transport editor, David Millward, weighs up whether Malaysia Airlines can survive this tragedy.
 The airline’s stock closed 11 per cent down, he writes, as investors displayed anxiety at the airline’s prospects.
They need to renew their fleet - yet reported an annual loss of $300 million (£176 million) last year.
And, as one aviation expert told him:
QuoteTo lose two aircraft, and over 500 passengers within six months is devastating.
19.17 Mark Rutte, the Dutch prime minister, held a press conference earlier on.
He vowed "not to rest" in tracking down those responsible.
Visibly angry, he said:
QuoteLet me be crystal-clear about this.
Should it emerge that it was an attack, I will personally see to it that the perpetrators are brought to justice.
We will not rest until they have been brought to book. We owe it to the victims and their families.
19.07 Our Washington correspondent, Raf Sanchez, has been looking at how world leaders have reacted to the tragedy.
18.58 As we discover more names of victims, so more tales of horror are emerging.
At 14.02, we told you how Kaylene Mann's brother Rod Burrows and sister-in-law Mary Burrows were on board MH370 when it vanished in March.
Her stepdaughter, Maree Rizk, was on MH17.
And now it turns out that a Malaysian air steward lost her husband in MH370 - and her friends in M17.
She said:
QuoteHow you expect me to fly ??? I think I will hang my uniform very soon.
18.52 The ground search continues. We know both black boxes have been found - but we don't know whether they are still in Ukraine, or in Russia.
Capt. Wan Amran Wan Hussin, who had been a pilot for Malaysia Airlines for 25 years, sent his wife, Meriam Yusoff, the message on WhatsApp.
She learned of the tragedy when a local television station called and told her to watch the TV.
18.31 Our home affairs correspondent, David Barrett, has just received confirmation that the Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB) is to send a team to the crash team to assist in the investigation.
The involvement of independent British experts will be crucial in establishing the truth behind the disaster, particularly the role played by any military hardware.
18.21 Our correspondent at the crash site, Roland Oliphant, brings us the latest news from the scene.
He said:
QuoteTwenty four hours after this plane went down, in a sunflower field 40 miles east of Donetsk, Ukrainian emergency workers are still gathering bodies which are scattered - along with the wreckage of the plane, the cargo and the personal affects of passengers - across a vast area.
It's impossible to judge the size of the area, but it's clear that it's very widely spread out.
We saw wreckage up to six miles from the main site.
There's no gunfire to be heard at the moment, although we had to divert our route quite considerably on the way here from Kharkiv.
Fighting is continuing elsewhere in the region, and The Telegraph heard shelling south of Slaviansk near the town of Artyomsk.
18.17 Sky News reporting that the European team heading to the crash site have not been able to do so - because it's not safe.
18.12 The Telegraph's deputy head of technology, Matthew Sparkes, has been looking at a "Wikipedia War" breaking out - with controversial edits of the MH17 page originating in Russia.
 He writes:
It appears that an internet user from within the All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company (VGTRK) changed a Russian language version of a page listing civil aviation accidents to say that: "The plane [flight MH17] was shot down by Ukrainian soldiers".
That edit replaced text – written just an hour earlier - which said MH17 had been shot down "by terrorists of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic with Buk system missiles, which the terrorists received from the Russian Federation."
18.02 We've just received clips from Obama's press conference:
17.54 This is the latest breakdown of nationalities - remember that, in the past hour or so, the death toll for Britons has risen to 10, and Obama announced that one person with joint American-Dutch citizenship was on board.
Malaysia's UN Ambassador Hussein Haniff told the council that 298 people perished and gave the following breakdown of their nationalities:
Netherlands (189)
Malaysia (44)
Australia (27)
Indonesia (12)
United Kingdom (10)
Germany (4)
Belgium (4)
Philippines (3)
Canada (1)
New Zealand (1)
- 3 passengers whose nationalities had not been verified.

• 298 aboard the plane with none surviving
• Delegates heading to HIV conference in Melbourne among dead
• White House calls for ceasefire to access crash site

 Emergecy contact: 00 60 37884 1234

Latest

04.30 The White House has urged Russia, pro-Russian separatists and Ukraine to support an immediate cease-fire in order to permit safe and unfettered access to the crash site.
QuoteIt is critical that there be a full, credible, and unimpeded international investigation as quickly as possible," White House spokesman Josh Earnest said in a statement.
"It is vital that no evidence be tampered with in any way and that all potential evidence and remains at the crash site are undisturbed."
02.50 US Secretary of State John Kerry has called for a "credible" international investigation into the apparent downing of the airliner over rebel-held eastern Ukraine..
QuoteWe are horrified by the crash of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17. The United States government remains prepared to assist with a credible, international investigation any way we can, and we will continue to be in touch with all relevant partners as we seek the facts of what happened today."
02.12 Australia's Qantas Airways , Korea Air Lines Co Ltd and Asiana Airlines Inc have confirmed that they shifted flights operating over Ukrainian air space months ago amid increasing tensions between Kiev and pro-Moscow rebels.
The Australian flag carrier said it shifted the flight path for its London to Dubai route over Ukraine some 400 nautical miles to the south "several months ago."
A Qantas spokesman declined to comment on the reasons for the shift, but a spokeswoman at Asiana Airlines, which stopped flying over the area on March 3, cited intensifying geopolitical tensions. Korean Air Lines stopped flights at the same time.
Also, reports the Telegraph's David Millward, US authorities have joined the list of countries banning flights over eastern Ukraine.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued a Notice to Airman - a directive known in the industry as a NOTAM - expanding the prohibited area to include the entire Simferopol and Dnepropetrovsk flight information regions. An earlier directive already covered the Crimea and adjacent areas if the Black Sea and Sea of Azov
01.50 Some of the passengers on the plane were heading to a major international AIDS conference in Melbourne, the Australian government has confirmed.
Flight MH17 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was due to connect with a flight to Perth, in western Australia.
UNAIDS Director Michael Sidibe, who is in Melbourne, tweeted that many passengers were enroute to the conference.
"At this incredibly sad and sensitive time the IAS stands with our international family and sends condolences to the loved ones of those who have been lost to this tragedy," the conference organisers, the International AIDS Society, said in a statement.
The week-long 20th International Aids Conference, with scheduled speakers including former US President Bill Clinton, is due to begin on Sunday.
01.03 Malaysia Airlines have moved to stress that the flight route taken by the plane that came down in Ukraine had been declared safe by the UN aviation arm, the International Civil Aviation Organisation.
They also said the International Air Transportation Association “had stated that the airspace the aircraft was traversing was not subject to restrictions”.
The airline said the plane was carrying a total 298 people, including three infants - 283 passengers and 15 crew. It earlier said it had been carrying 295 people which did not account for the three young children.
Netherlands 154
Malaysia 43
Australia 27
Indonesia 12
United Kingdom 9
Germany 4
Belgium 4
Philippines 3
Canada 1
Unverified 41
00.35 Malaysia Airlines have confirmed that there were 283 passengers on flight MH17 as well as 15 crew. They have also confirmed that all of their European flights will be diverted so as not to travel through Ukrainian airspace.
00.28 There have been unconfirmed reports on social media that some leading international Aids researchers and scientists were on the flight en route to Melbourne for the 2014 World Aids Conference.
00.18 The latest thinking on the provenance of the missile, according to the Wall Street Journal.
US intelligence agencies are divided over whether the missile was launched by the Russian military or by pro-Russia separatist rebels, who officials say lack the expertise on their own to bring down a commercial airline in mid-flight.
"All roads lead to the Russians to some degree," a US official told the newspaper.
00.01 Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has added to his initial comments branding the tragedy an "act of terror", insisting the event poses a security challenge world wide and not just in Ukraine.
QuoteToday’s tragedy showed again that terrorism is not localised, but a world problem. And the external aggression against Ukraine is not just our problem, but a threat to European and global security."
23.29 Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Ukraine is ultimately responsible for the crash of a Malaysian airline carrying 298 people in the strife-torn east of the country.
QuoteThere is no doubt that the country on whose territory this terrible tragedy happened bears responsibility,” Putin was quoted by Ria Novosti news agency as saying.
“This tragedy would not have happened if there was peace in the country, if military operations had not resumed in the south-east of Ukraine.”
The Russian leader added that he had ordered military officials to“provide all aid needed to shed light on this criminal act.”
23.15 Journalists covering the separatist uprising in eastern Ukraine have been some of the first to chronicle first hand the gruesome carnage, with searing eye-witness reports from the wheat field where flight MH17 smashed to earth.
QuoteA woman in a black sweater top lay on her back, blood streaming from her face, her left arm raised as if signaling someone,” wrote Sabrine Tavernise, a New York Times correspondent.
“Another victim, naked except for a black bra, lay on the field, her grey hair mixing with the green grasses, one leg broken and her body torn."
Rescue workers from the local militia forces tied pieces of white cloth on tree branches as near to the scene as they could as approximate markers of where bodies were found.
Locals told Noah Sneider, a freelance American journalist, that at first they thought they were being bombed as the plane tore apart above the ground, raining wreckage, bodies and personal possessions along a debris path cut across the rural area.
22.40 We reported earlier that the Ukrainian security services had released what they say are recordings proving that Russian military intelligence ordered MH17 to be shot down (20.16), and later the English transcript of that call (21.00). Here's the recording again with full English subtitles included this time.

Qi Razali Naik Angin Lagi


Qi Razali
  (Ubah saiz teks)
PETALING JAYA:  Selepas timbul kontroversi dia bergaduh dengan Nelydia Senrose di tempat awam, Qi Razali sekali lagi berang apabila khabar angin dikaitkan mesra dengan pelakon Nora Danish ditimbulkan semula oleh seorang individu di laman sosial Twitter.

Qi atau nama sebenarnya Qushairi Mohammed Razali, 37,  berkata, perkara tersebut membuatkan dia tertekan kerana tuduhan itu sedikit sebanyak menjejaskan hubungan cintanya dengan aktres Nelydia Senrose.

"Ada orang cuba buat fitnah lagi di Twitter, mungkin kerana keluar filem Bencintakelmarin di televisyen, gosip itu timbul semula yang mana ia tidak berasas langsung.

"Kalau cerita tu betul saya tidak kisah dan kalau cerita itu tak betul pun saya akan diam sahaja tetapi kalau sampai menjejaskan hubungan saya macam mana? Tak kan saya nak diam," katanya kepada mStar Online melalui mesej aplikasi sosial WhatsApp, di sini, pada Selasa.

Qi bersama kekasihnya Nelydia Senrose.

Qi berkata demikian ketika diminta mengulas tentang statusnya di laman Twitter pada Isnin lalu yang berang dengan tindakan seorang pengikut di laman Twitter kerana menyebarkan fitnah iaitu khabar angin tentang dirinya mempunyai hubungan dengan pelakon Nora Danish.

Dalam Twitter tersebut Qi memberitahu tuduhan itu merupakan sesuatu yang tidak masuk akal dan keterlaluan hingga menyakitkan orang-orang yang dekat dengannya.

Antara tulisan yang dimuat naik oleh Qi Razali di laman Twitter miliknya pada Isnin.

Umum mengetahui Nora Danish kini bercinta dengan Nedim Nazri.
Qi turut melahirkan rasa kesal apabila hubungan cintanya sering menjadi perhatian dan dihimpit pelbagai kontroversi.

"Saya tulis status itu supaya dapat bagi mesej kepada orang yang sebarkan khabar angin itu. Saya tidak tahu apa niat dia berbuat demikian.

"Saya perlu pertahankan maruah saya juga sebab itu saya tulis di twitter untuk betulkan keadaan dan lagi bagus kalau dapat jumpa orang tersebut dan berbincang apa masalah dia sebenarnya," kata Qi.
Nora Danish


Sementara itu, menjelaskan tentang kontroversi bergaduh di tempat awam itu, Qi menganggap ia hanya sekadar salah faham antara dia dan kekasihnya Nelydia Senrose tentang sesuatu perkara yang tiada kena mengena dengan dirinya.

Dia juga kesal apabila tindakannya memujuk Nelydia disalah erti dan dianggap sebagai tidak menghormati wanita.

"Perselisihan faham itu terjadi disebabkan benda lain, saya hanya ingin memujuk dia sahaja, itu nampak seperti kami bergaduh. Saya malas nak besarkan cerita  negatif macam ni, apa yang mereka sampaikan kononnya saya tidak hormat wanita, itu juga tidak benar sama sekali," katanya.

Dalam pada itu, ditanya adakah kontroversi yang timbul menjejaskan fokus terhadap kerjayanya, Qi berkata, dia tidak pernah mencampurkan urusan peribadi dengan kerja.

Tambahnya, sepanjang Ramadan ini dia sibuk dengan penggambaran rancangan baharu berjudul Kembara Qi yang sedang menjalankan penggambaran di Kelantan.

"Saya tidak pernah masukan soal peribadi dengan kerja, kalau kerja saya fokus betul-betul supaya tidak menganggu produksi.

"Sekarang sedang penggambaran di Kelantan untuk program baru Kembara Qi yang bakal keluar tidak lama lagi," katanya.
