Malaysian government may reopen the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 10 years after it disappeared in 2014.
U.S. technology firm Ocean Infinity proposed the new search. Efforts would start in the southern Indian Ocean where officials speculate the plane had crashed. The plane vanished after its takeoff on March 8, 2014, carrying 239 people.
After its disappearance, numerous conspiracy theories arose surrounding the mysterious nature of the flight.
Debris found in 2023 suggested the plane may have been crashed intentionally.
Extensive search efforts have been conducted in the past. Officials all across the globe were able to narrow down an area of the Indian Ocean where the plane may have crashed. However, a precise location has yet to be identified. Some debris from the crash has been recovered, including a wing found by an Australian fisherman.
Ocean Infinity conducted a private search in 2018. The Malaysian government previously declined to conduct further searches due to the cost and time.
However, this weekend, Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke said Ocean Infinity is working to gain more evidence to aid in the search for the missing flight. If the evidence is conclusive, the firm may strike a contract with the Malaysian government.
Loke’s statement brought joy to families of the missing passengers of flight MH370.
Bai Zhong, husband of one of the missing passengers, told reporters, “No matter if it is 10 years, 20 years or more, as long as we are still alive… we will not cease to press for the truth. We believe the truth will eventually come to light.”
