The search for the wreckage of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 will resume on 30 December 2025, over a decade after the aircraft with 239 people on board vanished, Malaysian authorities have announced.
This fresh search, running for 55 days, had initially begun in March but was suspended shortly thereafter due to poor weather conditions.
The Transport Ministry emphasized the resumption highlights Malaysia's commitment to provide closure to the affected families.
Flight MH370 disappeared in 2014 while traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, leading to the largest search operation in aviation history.
Exploration firm Ocean Infinity is leading the current search under a 'no find, no fee' agreement, set to receive $70 million if the wreckage is located.
Prior searches involved 60 ships and 50 aircraft from 26 nations but ended in 2017. A three-month effort by Ocean Infinity in 2018 also yielded no results.
Flight MH370 lost contact with air traffic control within an hour of take-off on 8 March 2014 and was shown to have deviated from its scheduled path.
Despite previous investigations suggesting the controls were likely manipulated, no definitive explanation has emerged.
In the years since, many families have urged authorities to initiate a new search, hoping for eventual answers and closure.
The mystery continues to captivate and haunt those affected, sparking numerous conspiracy theories about possible foul play.
