STORY: A Mourning mass was held in the Netherlands on Sunday for the 298 victims of the Malaysian aircraft shot down over eastern Ukraine. Many of the victims were from the Netherlands.

In Harleem, in the north of the Netherlands, Catholics gathered at Saint Bavo Cathedral for a special memorial service where 298 candles were lit in the memory of those killed in the crash.

Dutch Foreign Minister Frans Timmermans said on Saturday that the Netherlands was "angry, furious" at the news that bodies were being dragged around the site of the crash.
