The first train containing bodies from the MH17 crash site is being blocked by "terrorists", the Ukrainian government has said.
In a statement, the government said the train, which is carrying the remains of 200 victims, is stuck at the station in the town of Torez.
Rescuers have found 251 bodies of the 298 victims in the area where the Malaysia Airlines flight came down in eastern Ukraine on Thursday, the statement went on.
Some 86 body parts have also been recovered.
The blocking of the train comes despite comments from Russian President Vladimir Putin that "we need to do everything to ensure the security and safety of the observers and the experts working at the crash site".
Sky's Katie Stallard, reporting in Moscow, said: "The Ukraine government uses the word terrorists, we would probably use the word rebels or separatists.
"If President Putin's statement was meant to move those people or indicate to them that they should now co-operate, that is plainly not happening."
Refrigerator wagons will take bodies away from the crash site A second train with refrigerator wagons to take the remains away has arrived in the area.
The destinations of the trains is not known.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian government forces are trying to break into the rebel-held city of Donetsk, according to reports from the separatists.
Fighting is under way near the city's railway station, with reports of four government and two rebel tanks heading to the area.
