MH370 Search Ends, Families Push for More

0:00It's March 8th, here's what's happening around the world. Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 disappeared 12 years ago today, carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew members from Kuala, Lumpur to Beijing. A fresh deep sea hunt in the Indian Ocean just ended with no sign of the wreckage. Ocean Infinity led the effort under a no-find, no-feed deal, searching more than 2,900 square miles over 28 days. It only gets $70 million if they found the plane. Families of those on board feel frustrated and are calling on Malaysian officials to extend the contract right away. Their group, Voice 370, won seamless work without waiting for a new agreement. The search wrapped up on January 23rd after weather delays hit both phases hard. Officials remain committed to sharing updates with relatives as things move forward. Officials now push for other search firms to jump in on the same no-find, no-feed terms. They worry winter in the Southern Hemisphere could push any next phase to June or later.
