U.S. President Barack Obama said evidence indicates the Malaysia Airlines jetliner that crashed in eastern Ukraine was shot down by a surface-to-air missile launched from an area controlled by Russian-backed separatists. He said the rebels have received a steady flow of arms from Russia, including antiaircraft weapons. Obama called for an international investigation of the tragedy and urged Russia, pro-Russian separatists, and Ukraine to adhere to an immediate cease-fire. (Reuters)
