The statement followed the publication earlier in the day of the final report on the cause of the crash by the Dutch Safety Board, which found that the plane was probably downed by a Russian-built missile, Reuters wrote.

Prosecutors said their independent findings so far "point in that same direction."

The statement by the Dutch-led team did not identify any suspects by name.

As UNIAN reported earlier, On October 13, 2015, the Dutch Safety Board announced that investigators had come to a conclusion that MH17 had been downed by a Russian surface-to-air Buk missile. The missile was launched from a 320km sq area, Tjibbe Joustra, Dutch Safety Board's chief, said while presenting the results of the investigation to the public at an airbase in the Netherlands.
