After more than a decade, the world's biggest aviation mystery - missing MH370 - may soon be solved, according to Australia's 9News page.
A new search for the whereabouts of Malaysia Airlines' MH370 crashed passenger plane could begin in a matter of weeks after the Malaysian government approves experts' reports on the potential location of the plane crash.
MH370 search experts say they are almost certain to have found MH370, just about 30km from where the most recent search for MH370.
A Malaysian government minister revealed that Kuala Lumpur is in detailed negotiations with US-based marine exploration company Ocean Infinity about resuming the search for MH370 after a 6-year hiatus.
"The latest data conducted by experts and researchers has been consulted by the company. Infinity's search recommendation is a strong, reliable recommendation," said Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke.
Ocean Infinity believes MH370 crashed in the Indian Ocean, 562km west of Perth, Australia.
There were 239 people on board when MH370 went missing on March 8, 2014. The plane's final satellite signal suggested the Boeing 777 could have crashed west of Perth.
The area has become the focus of a multinational search for the wreckage of crashed MH370. However, in December 2017, the most expensive search for airlines in history ended.
Notably, during the search phase, since June 2015, MH370 debris began drifting ashore on various continents, including Reunion Island, Mozambique, Tanzania and Mauritius.
A year after the first search for MH370 by many countries ended, Ocean Infinity began its first underwater search that lasted for 6 months without results. More than 200,000 square kilometers in the ocean have been checked by the company in this search for MH370.
The new search area proposed by Ocean Infinity in the 2024 search for MH370 is only 30km from the previous search area.
MH370 experts believe that the search could be resumed in this sea area by the end of November. The search will be based on the principle of "no find, no fee" but if MH370 is found, the fee to Ocean Infinity is 70 million USD.
