Netherlands MH17 The Waiting

FILE - In this July 17, 2014, file photo, a woman with a child walks past the crash site of a passenger plane near the village of Grabovo, Ukraine. For many families of the 298 people killed when Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was brought down July 17, 2014 over eastern Ukraine, uncertainty and agonizing waiting is still woven into the fabric of their lives a year later.
