On March 8, 2014, Malaysia Airlines flight 370 disappeared during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. Debris found in 2015 indicates that the plane crashed in the Indian Ocean, likely after running out of fuel. Despite extensive searches, the wreckage has never been found, and the cause of the crash remains a mystery. While several theories have been proposed, including mechanical failure, pilot suicide, and hijacking, none have been conclusively proven.
