A group of international police have abandoned plans to travel to the crash site of flight MH17 today because of safety fears.

The unarmed police say they "can't take the risk", due to ongoing fighting in the area.

Earlier, Malaysia's Prime Minister said an agreement has been reached with pro-Russian separatists for the mainly Dutch team to visit the site in eastern Ukraine.

Meanwhile there are calls for a new body to be setup to decide which flight paths are safe following the shooting down of flight MH17.

Malaysia Airlines say carriers can't be expected to make decisions on which regions are secure to fly over.
