DHAKA: Debris of the EgyptAir flight that went missing over the Mediterranean last month, killing 66 people on board, has been found.

A statement of Egyptian investigators committee said that ‘several main locations of the wreckage’ had been identified, Al Jazeera reports on Thursday (June 16).

The John Lethbridge has been contracted by the Egyptian government from the Mauritius-based Deep Ocean Search firm to join the search for flight MS804’s debris and flight data recorders.

The committee said the vessel obtained images of the wreckage located between the Greek island of Crete and the Egyptian coast, and that the next step will be drawing a map showing the wreckage location.

The John Lethbridge is equipped with sonar and other equipment capable of detecting wreckage at depths up to 6,000ft.
