A resumed deep-sea search by Ocean Infinity for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 has been unsuccessful.
According to Malaysia's Air Accident Investigation Bureau, the 28 days of searching, covering more than 2,900 square miles (7,500 sq km), had yielded no new findings.
The marine robotics company Ocean Infinity had been given permission to scour the Indian Ocean on a "no find, no fee" basis.
The agreement meant it would only be paid $70m (ยฃ52m) if the wreckage was located.
Previous search efforts were hampered by extreme conditions and failed to locate the wreckage, despite debris appearing on distant shores.
MH370 was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew members when it vanished, becoming one of the world's most unsolved aviation mysteries.
