New MH370 debris found in Madagascar

Unpublished
Sainte Luce, Madagascar - Five new pieces of debris that could belong to the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 have been found in Madagascar. Two fragments appear to show burn marks, which if confirmed would be the first time such marks have been found. MH370, flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, had 239 people on board when it vanished in March 2014. The flight is presumed to have crashed into the southern Indian Ocean after veering off course. The findings were made by debris hunter Blaine Gibson, who has previously found other parts of the plane. The most significant finding, according to Mr Gibson, is of the two alleged burnt pieces, recovered near Sainte Luce, in south-eastern Madagascar. It is unclear, however, if the apparent burn marks were caused by fire prior to the crash or as a result of burning afterwards, he said. Another small piece was found in the same area and two others in the north-eastern beaches of Antsiraka and Riake, where debris had already been found. All five fragments have the "honeycomb" material found in other MH370 debris.(FA)
