Bold headline: Malaysia Airlines MH370 search restarts after 11-plus years, reigniting the mystery.
The search for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 will resume later this month, more than a decade after the aircraft disappeared, the country’s transport ministry announced.
In a statement on Wednesday, the ministry said the operation would restart on 30 December and confirmed that the U.S. robotics firm Ocean Infinity would join the seabed search, which is planned to run for 50 days.
Flight MH370, which was traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 12 Malaysian crew members and 227 passengers, vanished from air traffic control radar on 8 March 2014. Its disappearance triggered the world’s largest and most extensive search operation, yet the fate of the plane remains unresolved and it has become one of aviation’s most enduring enigmas.
In 2024, Malaysia indicated it would be open to reopening an investigation into the disappearance if new, compelling evidence emerged.
