Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin has said rebels have prevented international experts from reaching the site where a Malaysian passenger plane crashed in eastern Ukraine.

"Terrorists back to their normal outrageous practice: they don't allow OSCE [the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe] monitors to access the #MH17 site claiming Ukraine army is fighting nearby," Klimkin said on Twitter.  

"Their argument is fake. Ukraine is committed to its unilateral ceasefire within a 40km zone."

Malaysia's Prime Minister earlier said that an agreement had been reached with separatists in Ukraine to give international police access to the site where Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was downed.

He said it would enable investigators to determine why the aircraft crashed.   

Ukraine separatist leader Aleksander Borodai said they would "provide protection for international crash investigators" to recover human remains and ascertain the cause of the crash.

Earlier, rebel leaders in east Ukraine said that a train carriage filled with the personal belongings of the victims of flight MH17 had been handed over to Dutch officials.

Dutch forensic experts

Meanwhile, the Dutch justice ministry said a team of 30 forensic experts was headed to the crash site.

This follows an agreement the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe made with rebels.

The Netherlands is leading an investigation of the 17 July incident.

They are planning to deploy gendarmes and police to the scene of the crash near Donetsk, along with Australian officers.

Russia has also opened its own inquiry.

Out of the 298 victims of the crash, 193 were Dutch citizens and 28 were Australian.

The rebels have rejected accusations they shot down the plane with a missile from Russia.

Many of the bodies have been removed.

A Dutch forensic team has been to the site already, but the forensic specialists investigating the crash have yet to go amid security concerns.

A truce has been called in the immediate area around the site by both Kiev forces and the separatists.

Combat has been raging just 60km away, with loud explosions heard at regular intervals in western and northern suburbs of rebel stronghold Donetsk.
