UPDATED A major search and rescue operation is underway in the South China Sea today after Malaysia Airline flight MH307 disappeared off the coast of Vietnam.
The Boeing 777 took off from Kuala Lumpur and was due to arrive in Beijing six hours later. But just two hours into the flight it lost radar contact with air traffic controllers. There were 227 passengers and 13 crew members on board, from 14 different nations. Relatives of those missing have gathered at Kuala Lumpur and Beijing airports, where they are desperately waiting for news from the search. Malaysian Transport Minister Hishamuddin Hussein said 12 hours into the search 'no trace of the crash site has been found'.
