Malaysia has agreed to resume the search for the wreckage of missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, more than 10 years after it disappeared in one of the world's greatest aviation mysteries. The country's transport minister announced that the government has accepted in principle a proposal to restart the search on a 'no find, no fee' basis. Flight MH370, a Boeing 777, disappeared on March 8, 2014, while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 passengers and crew on board. The aircraft went missing over the South China Sea, and despite extensive search efforts, only scattered debris has been found. The new search is expected to utilize advanced underwater drones to scour the southern Indian Ocean in hopes of finally locating the missing aircraft.
