Put The MH370 Theories To Rest, Debris Found Off Mozambique Is ‘Almost Certainly’ From The Missing Aircraft

It’s been more than two years now since Malaysian Airlines flight 370 disappeared on March 8, 2014 en route to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur. Gone without a trace, countless hours were dedicated by search parties scouring the Indian Ocean and South China Sea for any sign of the missing Boeing 777, to no avail.

But now, it seems like we can finally put one of the biggest mysteries of our lifetime to rest…somewhat.

In a statement released on Wednesday night, inspectors from the Australian government in conjunction with Malaysian officials have all but confirmed that debris found washed up on the east coast of Mozambique is “almost certainly” from MH370.

Here’s the statement released by Australian officials:

Photos of the debris in question can be seen below.

The two pieces of debris attributed to the downed airliner were discovered separately on the African coast by South African and U.S. citizens, respectively.

While this revelation surely will do nothing to bring closure to the the families of the 239 people lost on that fateful day, it does strongly support the theories that the plane went down in the southern Indian Ocean sometime after losing radio contact with ground control.

Or did it? Search operations attempting to locate MH370’s whereabouts are still being conducted on an international level for the time being…
