  • Story Text: China's state television on Saturday (March 22) aired a satellite image of what it said could be debris from Malaysia Airlines MH 370 which has been missing for two weeks.
    Malaysian officials said in a news conference earlier on Saturday Chinese satellites had spotted objects floating in the southern search area for the missing plane. The Chinese have sent ships to investigate. Xinhua news agency said the objects were about 120km from the site where Australia said they had seen possible debris and where a massive but inconclusive search operation has been underway.
    Malaysia's Ministry of Transport said the object measured 22.5 metres (73.8 feet) by 13 metres (42.6 feet).
    CCTV said that the image was taken from the Gaofen-1 high-resolution imaging satellite.
