KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian aviation experts are confident that a window and other debris found on the remote Indian Ocean island of Reunion in the past few days are from missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.

The debris has been sent to France where it will be forensically examined by experts who have already identified a barnacle-encrusted wing part that washed up on the island last week as being from MH370.

Malaysia’s Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai told reporters in Kuala Lumpur that a Malaysian team at the French territory of Reunion Island has collected other plane debris including a window and some aluminium foil.

There are many items collected,” he said.

Mr Liow made the comments hours after Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak announced it had been established “conclusively” that the wing part was from MH370
