The Independent reports that the black boxes recovered from the Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 crash site have arrived in Britain and handed to investigators, it has been confirmed.

The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) said the flight recorders have been delivered to their headquarters in Farnborough, Hampshire on Wednesday, where experts will attempt to retrieve crucial data from them.

The AAIB has been tasked with downloading the data by authorities in the Netherlands, who are leading the investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash in eastern Ukraine.

All 298 passengers on board the 17 July flight were killed, of whom 193 were Dutch and 10 were British. The bodies of the first 50 victims began their journey back to the Netherlands from Kharkiv Airport this morning to begin the process of identification.
