  • Flying Over Conflict Zones – Follow-Up Recommendations MH17 Crash Investigation Marieke Van Hijum, Senior Investigator, Dutch Safety Board
    Flying over Conflict Zones – Follow-up Recommendations MH17 Crash investigation Marieke van Hijum, Senior Investigator, Dutch Safety Board Marieke van Hijum is senior investigator in the aviation section at the Dutch Safety Board (DSB). Marieke has a Master of Science Degree in Aerospace Engineering from Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. Following University, she worked for the Dutch Civil Aviation Authority in the areas of research and ATM. In 2006, she joined the European Aviation Safety Agency in Cologne and worked in the domain of occurrence reporting and data analysis and in management positions. In 2017 she joined the DSB and was project manager of the follow-up investigation on the MH17 Crash investigation recommendations. On 17 July 2014, 298 people lost their lives when the Malaysia Airlines aeroplane they were in crashed near Hrabove, Ukraine. The disintegration of the aeroplane during the flight was the result of the detonation of a warhead above the left hand side of the cockpit. The aeroplane crashed over the eastern part of Ukraine, an area in which an armed conflict arose in April 2014. Initially, the conflict mostly took place on the ground, but as from the end of April 2014 it expanded into the airspace. The crash of flight MH17 immediately raised the question why the aeroplane was flying over an area where there was an ongoing armed conflict. The MH17 Crash report published by the Dutch Safety Board in October 2015 responded to this question and explained the decision-making process with regard to flying over conflict zones at the time.

    MH17 MH17 About the investigation 1 van 99 MH17 About the investigation The Hague, October 2015 The reports issued by the Dutch Safety Board are open to the public. All reports are available on the Safety Board’s website www.safetyboard.nl. Source photo cover: Dutch Safety Board 2 van 99 Dutch Safety Board The aim in the Netherlands is to limit the risk of accidents and incidents as much as possible. If accidents or near accidents nevertheless occur, a thorough investigation into the causes, irrespective of who are to blame, may help to prevent similar problems from occurring in the future. It is important to ensure that the investigation is carried out independently from the parties involved. This is why the Dutch Safety Board itself selects the issues it wishes to investigate, mindful of citizens’ position of dependence with respect to authorities and businesses. In some cases the Dutch Safety Board is required by law to conduct an investigation. Dutch Safety Board Chairman: T.H.J. Joustra E.R. Muller M.B.A. van Asselt Associate members of the Board: B.J.A.M.
