Malaysia extends search for MH370 for another year, keeping families’ hopes alive

Malaysia has extended its contract with Ocean Infinity to search for MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean for another year, covering a remaining 7,428.54-square-kilometer area under a 'no-find, no-fee' agreement. The government approved the extension to provide closure for passengers' families, with Ocean Infinity to be paid $70 million only if wreckage is discovered. Previous searches, including a 2018 private effort, found no clues to the missing Boeing 777's location.
