The firm Ocean Infinity has launched a new search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 in what it says is a "more credible" patch of the Indian Ocean.

A new search has begun for the wreckage of the Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, in another effort to solve the mystery of the plane which disappeared over a decade ago with more than 200 people on board.

Maritime exploration firm Ocean Infinity has resumed the search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, the country's transport minister Anthony Loke said Tuesday. Loke told reporters contract details between Malaysia and the firm were still being finalised but welcomed the "the proactiveness of Ocean Infinity to deploy their ships" to begin the search for the plane which went missing in March 2014.
