According to navy Adm. Ngo Van Phat, a regional commander, military radar recorded that the plane crashed into the sea south of Phu Quoc island. The People's Daily, Chinese Communist Party's official newspaper, reported the same information.China deployed two rescue ships to the South China Sea on Saturday as the search intensified, state-run broadcaster CCTV said.Family and friends of many of the 154 Chinese nationals on board gathered at a hotel complex in the Lido district of Beijing. A large group of reporters gathered outside."My son was only 40 years old," one woman wailed as she was led inside. "My son, my son -- what am I going to do?"The Ministry of Transportation in Malaysia said 80% of family members of those onboard had been contacted. |
