- MH370 disappeared without trace in March 2014, with the loss of 239 lives.
- Searches of the Indian Ocean have now covered more than 200,000km², but despite changing theories on its location and some debris finds, the fuselage has not been found.
- The new Malaysian government says it won’t extend the search any further.
The search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 will end next week with the new Malaysian government calling time on the extended search by a US contractor due to budgetary constraints.
