Investigators searching the wreckage of Malaysian Air Flight MH17 in eastern Ukraine for a second day found more human remains and personal effects of victims as government forces continued battling pro-Russian rebels.
The 70-strong team of Dutch and Australian forensic experts and police officers, helped by sniffer dogs, returned to a chicken farm near the village of Grabovo where the bulk of the fuselage came down on July 17, Pieter-Jaap Aalbersberg, the Dutch head of the recovery mission, said in a statement. They spent 5 1/2 hours at the site. The remains and objects found were placed in a refrigerated truck to be taken to the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv for analysis.
