Dutch Mark Third Anniversary of MH17 Downing

BBC World Service - Newshour, Dutch Mark Third Anniversary of MH17 Downing

Three years since the MH17 crashed in Ukraine, the Netherlands holds memorial ceremony.

It's three years to the day since Malaysian Airlines' Flight MH17, going from Amsterdam, was shot down in eastern Ukraine, killing 298 people.  It was the worst single loss of life in the war between Russian-backed separatists and the Ukrainian government. The BBC's Anna Holligan was at the event. 

Also in the programme; More than a million people have now been displaced by fighting in the Central African Republic. And the British government says new regulations on internet porn will make the UK the safest place in the world for children to go online.
