KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Ten days after a Malaysian jetliner disappeared, Thailand’s military said Tuesday it saw radar blips that might have been from the missing plane but didn’t report it “because we did not pay attention to it.”
Search crews from 26 countries, including Thailand, are looking for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, which vanished March 8 with 239 people aboard en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Aircraft and ships are scouring two giant arcs of territory amounting to the size of Australia — half of it in the remote waters of the southern Indian Ocean.
Military officials in Thailand said Tuesday their radar showed an unidentified plane flying toward the strait minutes after the Malaysian jet’s transponder signal was lost.
