- Australia’s maritime search agency is now focusing all of its resources on finding two objects picked up on satellite images that they believe could be related to the missing Malaysia Airlines plane. One of the objects is believed to be around 24 metres long. A search is now under way.
- In a press conference the general manager of Australia’s maritime safety agency, John Young, said an expert analysis of satellite imagery by Australia’s Geospatial-Intelligence Organisation says the images show “a possible indication of debris” that could be from the plane.
- An Australian aircraft is now at the scene, and a United States Poseidon vessel is also attending the operation. Two other aircraft, including one from New Zealand, are flying to the location, and a navy vessel is also en-route. Australia has received a number of offers of assistance from other nations to assist in the search operation.
