BALI (Indonesia) , September 5 (RIA Novosti) – Malaysian experts are going to continue working on Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 crash site in eastern Ukraine, until remains of all MH17 victims are found and handed over to the families, Malaysia’s Prime Minister Najib Razak said.

"We will look for every evidence and the rest of the remains at the site. I will not be satisfied unless all the remains have been handed over to the respective families," Razak said as quoted by the Star online.

Malaysia is appealing for a ceasefire in eastern Ukraine so that the experts can continue working on the crash site and gathering evidence.

On July 17, a Malaysia Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur crashed in the Ukraine’s eastern region of Donetsk. None of the 298 people on board survived in the crash.

The reason for the crash is a matter of debate. Kiev accuses independence supporters in eastern Ukraine for shooting down a plane, but cannot provide any evidence. The local militia leaders ensure that they do not have weapons capable of shooting down a plane flying at 32,000 feet.

The investigation into the incident was constantly interrupted by fighting between Kiev forces and the local militia in the area of the plane crash.

Earlier this week, a Dutch Safety Board that heads the investigation into the crash stated that the final report on causes of MH17 catastrophe will be published next summer.
