DONETSK, September 4. /TASS/. Authorities of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic are ready to hand over to the Netherlands the remains of victims of the MH17 crash near Torez in mid-July 2014, the DPR prosecutors said.

"Our personnel collected the remains, honoring the rules of criminal procedure, and they have been examined. The results showed that some of them may be human remains," the Donetsk News Agency reported citing the prosecutors.

They are preparing to make an official address to the Dutch Prosecutor-General on the handover of remains to the Netherlands. "We officially declare that we will further provide unconditional assistance to the international investigation on this," the DPR prosecutors stressed.
