The newest development on the missing Malaysian flight MH370 confirmed it crashed at southern Indian Ocean, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak announced in his official statement on Monday night.

Speaking at a news conference held at Putra World Trade Center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the Prime Minister informed the news to the family members of passengers of the missing flight.

Earlier Monday, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said signs of the missing flight’s debris were found at southern Indian Ocean. He said the newest development will be announced by the Malaysian Prime Minister later in the day.

The missing Malaysian airplane, Boeing 777-200, had departed Kuala Lumpur at around 12:41 a.m. on March 8 with 239 passengers and flight attendants and headed to Beijing, China. But at around 1:30 a.m., control towers lost communication with the plane, losing its location from the radar.
