KIEV, July 22 - The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has called on the countries whose citizens were killed in the July 17 crash of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 to consider the possibility of sending civilian police units to guard the plane's crash site in eastern Ukraine.

"We are calling on the countries whose citizens became the victims of this air crash, the countries that, along with Ukraine, are mostly interested in conducting a comprehensive and independent investigation to consider the possibility of sending civilian police units in order to make sure that the site of the air crash remains intact along its entire perimeter, as well as to extend the required assistance to the investigation," the Foreign Ministry said in a commentary in response to the UN Security Council's resolution that calls for an international investigation into the MH17 Flight crash.
