As the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 continues into March 9, 2014, multiple countries join the effort, contributing aircraft, ships, and personnel.
Malaysia confirms that Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and China are participating in coordinated search operations. The search zone expands across wider sections of the South China Sea as authorities reassess available radar and flight data.
Thai officials announce that they are shifting part of their search focus westward toward the Andaman Sea at Malaysia’s request, reflecting emerging questions about the aircraft’s possible flight path. Officials caution that information remains incomplete and that no conclusions are being drawn.
China deploys ships and aircraft to search areas relevant to Chinese passengers onboard the flight. Malaysia Airlines states that it continues working closely with international partners and government agencies.
No confirmed debris is located. Authorities maintain that the operation remains a search-and-rescue mission.
