Chinese officials believe they may have found the wreckage of missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 in a satellite image that is currently being broadcast around the world.

This is the first positive lead in the investigation so far.
The location of the debris coincides with the position that the aircraft was supposed to be at, and it also coincides with the position and time that an oil rig worker claims he saw an aircraft go down.

CNN says the image shows a suspected crash site in the South China Sea, close to the plane’s projected flight path.

The image, reportedly captured about 11am on Sunday, shows three large pieces at sea, the largest of which measured 24m by 27m, according to the Chinese State Administration for Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, the Guardian reports.

A Chinese government agency said that its satellite looking for the missing aircraft “observed a suspected crash area at sea”.

The agency has released images of what it says are “three suspected floating objects and their sizes”.
