Describing the dismal state of the dead bodies of MH17 crash victims in Ukraine, US Secretary of State John Kerry has reportedly said that drunken separatists are piling dead bodies in trucks unceremoniously and tampering with evidence at the location of the crash in Donetsk region.
According to CNN, Malaysia's transportation minister has confirmed that the separatists are preventing the international team from entering the crash site.
