"We are increasingly confident that this debris is from MH370," Martin Dolan, chief commissioner of the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, told AFP. "We are still working with our French and Malaysian colleagues to analyze all the information, so we don't have certainty yet, but we hope that within the next little while, we'll be able to get to that level of confidence. We're hoping within the next 24 hours”. AB/IINA
