A Chinese satellite has reportedly spotted a large floating object in the Indian Ocean as the search for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 goes on.
Malaysia’s Transport Minister, Hishamuddin Hussein, told reporters of the finding after being handed a note during a press conference this morning and stated that China would be making an announcement later.
“Chinese ships have been dispatched to the area. Beijing is expected to make an announcement in a few hours,” Hussein told the assembled press.
