Malaysia Airlines Market News Update : Epic Research Malaysia

Shares in Malaysia Airlines tumbled almost 18 per cent on Friday after one of its passenger jets crashed in violence-wracked Ukraine, just months after the carrier was hit by the loss of a plane over the Indian Ocean.

The firm fell 17.8 per cent to 0.185 ringgit at one point in morning trade on the Kuala Lumpur stock exchange, before paring some of those losses to sit 13 per cent lower.

Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 was carrying 298 people from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur when it came down late Thursday over eastern Ukraine, with US officials said it was shot down by a surface-to-air missile.

Ukrainian government forces are engaged in a fierce battle to quell a rebellion in the country's east by pro-Russian insurgents.
