马来西亚总理:MH370坠毁于南印度洋
Malasyian Prime Minister's Statement Says MH270 ended in South Indian Ocean
This evening I was briefed by representatives from the UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB). They informed me that Inmarsat, the UK company that provided the satellite data which indicated the northern and southern corridors, has been performing further calculations on the data. Using a type of analysis never before used in an investigation of this sort, they have been able to shed more light on MH370’s flight path.
Based on their new analysis, Inmarsat and the AAIB have concluded that MH370 flew along the southern corridor, and that its last position was in the middle of the Indian Ocean, west of Perth.
This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites. It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that, according to this new data, flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean.
We will be holding a press conference tomorrow with further details. In the meantime, we wanted to inform you of this new development at the earliest opportunity. We share this information out of a commitment to openness and respect for the families, two principles which have guided this investigation.
Malaysia Airlines have already spoken to the families of the passengers and crew to inform them of this development. For them, the past few weeks have been heartbreaking; I know this news must be harder still. I urge the media to respect their privacy, and to allow them the space they need at this difficult time.
据《中国日报》网站报道,马来西亚总理纳吉布在新闻发布会上说:
今晚,英国航空事故调查局(AAIB)的代表向我做了简要说明。他们告知我,英国Inmarsat公司根据卫星数据进行了进一步计算。此前该公司的卫星数据显示了南北走廊两条航线。通过运用此前从未在同类调查中运用的分析方式,他们能够更清晰地掌握MH370失联飞机的航线。
Inmarsat和AAIB根据最新分析结果得出结论:MH370航班沿南线飞行,最后位置是在珀斯四部的印度洋中部海域。该位置偏远,远离一切可能着陆的地方。因此,怀着深深的哀痛和遗憾,我不得不宣布:据最新数据显示,MH370坠毁于印度洋南部海域。
我们明天会召开新闻发布会,进一步公开相关细节。同时,我们希望尽可能快地告知大家有关事情的新进展。我们公布这一消息是秉着公开透明和尊重家属的原则,这一原则也贯穿此次调查的始终。
马来西亚航空公司已把这一消息告知机组人员和乘客的家属。对他们而言,过去的两周是支离破碎的。我知道这一噩耗仍会加剧他们痛苦。在此,我呼吁各媒体尊重家属隐私,在这艰难的时刻,给予他们应有的空间。
