非洲東海岸發現疑似MH370又一殘骸

A piece of debris found along the eastern African coast between Mozambique and Madagascar may be from the tail section of the Malaysia Airlines plane that disappeared two years ago, NBC News reported on last Wednesday.

美國國家廣播公司上週三的一則報道稱，在莫桑比克和馬達加斯加之間的非洲東海岸發現了一片殘骸，其很有可能來自於兩年前失蹤的馬來西亞航空航班的飛機尾部。

Citing U.S., Malaysian and Australian investigators who have looked at photos of the possible debris, NBC said the piece could be a horizontal stabilizer from a Boeing 777, the same type of plane as the flight MH370 aircraft that was en route to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur when authorities lost track of it in March 2014.

引用美國、馬來西亞和澳大利亞三方調查人員觀察疑似碎片的照片後的言論，NBC表示，這塊碎片很有可能是波音777的水平穩定器，而在2014年三月失聯的吉隆坡飛往北京的MH370航班的飛機型號正是波音777。

Reuters could not immediately confirm the report, and Mozambican authorities have no information on the sighting of such an object off the coast of Inhambane province, according to Interior Ministry spokesman Inacio Dina.

路透社並未立刻確認該報道。內政部發言人Inacio Dina聲稱，莫桑比克當局尚未有關於在伊尼揚巴內省海岸目擊該殘骸的信息。

The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board declined comment, and referred questions to the Malaysian authorities who oversaw the investigation. Boeing also declined to comment, referring all questions to investigating authorities.

美國國家運輸安全委員會拒絕對此發表評論，並將問題交給馬來西亞當局負責。波音公司也拒絕置評，而是將全部疑問交給調查小組。

Australian authorities told NBC they were arranging for an investigation of the piece, which could have drifted to the sand bar. Authorities there have said they are stepping up their search for the missing plane, which had been carrying 239 passengers.

澳大利亞當局對NBC表示，正在安排對這塊可能漂流到沙灘的碎片進行調查。當局還表示，他們正在加緊搜尋這架載有239名乘客的失聯飛機。
