Flight Lieutenant Jason Nichols, on board a Royal Australian Air Force AP-3C Orion, takes notes as they search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean on March 22, 2014

Sydney (Australia) (AFP) - Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott voiced increasing hope Sunday of discovering the fate of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 and the 239 people on board after unidentified debris was sighted in the search zone.

"It's still too early to be definite, but obviously we have now had a number of very credible leads and there is increasing hope -- no more than hope, no more than hope -- that we might be on the road to discovering what did happen to this ill-fated aircraft," Abbott said.
