The United Nations (U.N.) Security Council held an emergency meeting on the Malaysia Airlines plane that was shot down in Ukraine. U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Samantha Power said the airliner was likely downed by a surface to air missile and there were reports that separatists in the area boasted of shooting down the plane. The Russian ambassador to the U.N. blamed the U.S. for escalating the tension in Ukraine and said Ukraine should have alerted the aviation industry about the dangers of the area.
