Malaysia rejects report MH370 plane flew on, Chinese photos

Malaysia on Thursday denied a report that its missing airliner flew on four hours after disappearing from radar and said Chinese photos that raised hopes of a search breakthrough actually showed no wreckage.

“The reports are inaccurate,” Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told reporters.

He added that China had told Malaysia the satellite photos were released “by mistake and did not show any debris.”
