Malaysia has agreed to resume the search for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, over 10 years after it disappeared. The search will focus on a new area in the southern Indian Ocean, proposed by exploration firm Ocean Infinity. If substantive wreckage is found, Ocean Infinity will receive $70 million.
Malaysia has agreed in principle to resume the search for the wreckage of missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 , its transport minister says, more than 10 years after it disappeared in one of the world’s greatest aviation mysteries. The Boeing 777 was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew, including six Australian citizens and one New Zealand resident of Western Australia, when it vanished on the way from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014.
“We hope this time will be positive, that the wreckage will be found and give closure to the families.” Malaysian investigators initially did not rule out the possibility that the aircraft had been deliberately taken off course. Debris, some confirmed and some believed to be from the aircraft, has washed up along the coast of Africa and on islands in the Indian Ocean.
