AUTHORITIES from the Netherlands, Australia, Belgium and Ukraine have signed an agreement to set up a joint investigation team (JIT) to investigate the crash of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17, with the participation of Malaysia and justice organization Eurojust, Dutch national broadcaster NOS reports on Saturday based on a letter by the public prosecutor.

Authorities from the Netherlands, Australia, Belgium, Ukraine, and Malaysia, as well as authorities in countries whose nationals are victims of the crash, including Britain, Germany, the Philippines, Italy, Canada, New Zealand, Indonesia and the United States, are cooperating closely.

The Dutch National Public Prosecutors Office is coordinating the JIT. Currently criminal investigations are being conducted in the Netherlands, Ukraine, Belgium, Malaysia and Australia.

"The JIT supports UN Security Council Resolution 2166's call for a full, thorough and independent international investigation into the incident," the letter of the prosecutor stated. "The resolution calls on all states and actors in the region to cooperate fully with the investigation efforts, including by providing unhindered access to the crash sites."
