HeadlineMar 25, 2014

New satellite data indicates a plane carrying 239 people that vanished nearly two weeks ago crashed into the Indian Ocean, leaving no survivors. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak made the announcement on Tuesday.

Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak: “This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites. It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that, according to this new data, Flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean.”

Despite an extensive search involving multiple countries, the plane’s wreckage has yet to be recovered.
