The search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 is set to resume.
Missing Malaysian plane
Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 disappeared on March 8, 2014, while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 227 passengers and 12 crew members on board.
Malaysia, Australia and China have since joined the search, covering nearly 120,000 square kilometers (46,332 square miles) of the Indian Ocean.
But no significant wreckage has been found.
Only a few pieces of debris believed to be from the plane have been found washed up on beaches in Africa and on islands in the Indian Ocean.
The search, which was ultimately fruitless, ended in 2018.
However, the families of more than 150 Chinese people on the missing plane are continuing to launch new search efforts and are seeking compensation from Malaysia Airlines and other parties.
It is noteworthy that Malaysian investigators did not initially rule out the possibility that the plane was deliberately diverted from its route. This has made the disappearance of the Boeing 777 one of the greatest mysteries in aviation.
Search operation to resume
The search for the mysterious flight MH370, which has been missing for almost 10 years, is set to resume.
Marine robotics firm Ocean Infinity, which was previously involved in the search, is set to join the effort.
The company, which operates underwater robotic vehicles and is based in Southampton, England, has reached an agreement in principle with the Malaysian government to conduct search operations in a new area of the southern Indian Ocean.
In this regard, Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke told a press conference that Ocean Infinity would be rewarded with $70 million (£56 million) if significant debris is found.
