The mystery of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is entering a new phase. Malaysia's Ministry of Transport has confirmed that seabed operations will restart in the southern Indian Ocean on 30 December 2025, led by marine robotics firm Ocean Infinity. The new mission will run intermittently for a total of 55 days in areas judged to have the highest probability of finding the aircraft.
The operation forms part of a service agreement signed between Malaysia and Ocean Infinity in March 2025, reviving a partnership first formed during a privately funded search in 2018. Under that earlier 'no find, no fee' model, the company used autonomous underwater vehicles to comb remote stretches of seafloor but found no wreckage, forcing the search to be suspended.
