Malaysia’s government has agreed in principle to restart the search for the wreckage of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, over a decade after its mysterious disappearance in 2014, Al Jazeera reported.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke, made the announcement on Friday, stating that the proposal for a new search in the southern Indian Ocean was submitted by the US-based exploration firm Ocean Infinity, which had previously led the last search effort in 2018.

While speaking with the reporters, Loke said, “The proposal for a search operation by Ocean Infinity is a solid one and deserves to be considered. Our responsibility and obligation and commitment is to the next of kin. We hope this time will be positive, that the wreckage will be found and give closure to the families.”
