Search for missing jet wreck narrowed down

Malaysia says it has narrowed the search area for a downed airliner by 80% in the southern Indian Ocean, while Australia said improved weather would allow the hunt for possible debris from the plane to resume.

The comments from defence minister Hishammuddin Hussein came a day after the country’s prime minister announced that a new analysis of satellite data confirmed the plane crashed in a remote part of the southern Indian Ocean, killing all 239 aboard.
