It's not yet clear if passengers, whose remains are scattered in Hrabove in eastern Ukraine, died immediately when the missile struck or possibly minutes later, when the plane crashed to the ground.
"A lot depends on missile type and where the missile impacts," Holt said.
A U.S. official told ABC News that a surface-to-air missile struck the Boeing 777 that went down today in Ukraine near Russia's border. It is unclear whether the missile was fired from inside Ukrainian or Russian territory and who fired it, the official added. Debris and remains are spread across 10 miles in the area.
The flight, carrying 280 passengers and 15 crew members, was traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.

霍尔特进一步解释称,至于飞机究竟遭到何种损坏,则取决于其被导弹击中的具体位置。“如果导弹穿过装有燃油箱的机翼,飞机会在半空中爆炸。但在视频里,马航客机没有在空中变成一个火球,而是待其坠至地面时,才看见火焰和浓烟。”
