announced at a special press conference early Thursday that the joint
France-Malaysia investigations had confirmed the aircraft flaperon found
on the island as originating from the aircraft.
“Today, 515 days since the plane disappeared, it is with a heavy
heart that I must tell you that an international team of experts have
conclusively confirmed that the aircraft debris found on Reunion Island
is indeed from MH370.
We now have physical evidence that, as I announced on 24th March
last year, flight MH370 tragically ended in the southern Indian Ocean,”
he said at the Putra World Trade Centre.
The wing part had been officially identified last week as part of a
Boeing 777 by French authorities together with Boeing, the US National
Transportation Safety Board and a Malaysian investigation team.
MH370, with 239 people on board, disappeared from radar during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014.
The aircraft is believed to have ended its journey in the southern Indian Ocean.
