Search for MH370: 'High possibility' debris from Boeing 777

Malaysia's transport minister has said there is a "high possibility" that debris found in Mozambique came from a Boeing 777, the same model as missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370. Liow Tiong Lai tweeted: "Based on early reports, high possibility debris found in Mozambique belongs to a B777". Mr Liow said Malaysian aviation teams were working with their Australian counterparts to retrieve the debris. MH370 disappeared in March 2014 while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. The aircraft and all 239 passengers remain missing. Missing Malaysia plane MH370: What we know MH370 search: Does debris solve the mystery?

Last year authorities found a piece of the plane's wing on the shore of Reunion island in the Indian Ocean. According to reports, the new object was discovered on a sandbank off the coast of Mozambique. NBC News said the debris was found by an American man who has been tracking the investigation into the missing flight. Mr Liow said: "I urge everyone to avoid undue speculation as we are not able to conclude that the debris belongs to MH370 at this time." Mozambican authorities have no information on the sighting of the object, interior ministry spokesman Inacio Dina told Reuters. The US National Transportation Safety Board and aircraft manufacturer Boeing declined to comment. Based on satellite communications data, MH370 is thought to have crashed in the Indian Ocean.
