It was a plane in Ukraine airspace near the Russian boarder. If it was shot down, it's more likely the work of the rebels mistaking it for a troop transport and not Ukrainians whom would obviously have it on their radars.
If it turns out to be shot down by the rebels, Russia is going to be up shit creek, because the weapons obviously came from them.
