More than nine months after the Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 disappeared on its way from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, the Australian Transport Safety Bureau has released pictures recorded by search vessels as they scour the bed of the Indian Ocean.

The Go Phoenix and Fugro Discovery continued to work around the clock intensively searching the ocean floor, much of it up to 6000m below the water surface, reported News.com.au.

The report said that more than 9000 square kilometers, which forms 16 percent of the 55,000 square kilometre priority search area, have been scoured by search vessels till date.

The Boeing 777 aircraft was carrying 239 passengers and crew when it went missing.
