An expedition searching for the wreckage of Amelia Earhart’s plane has resumed after stormy weather halted operations for three days at a remote Pacific island.
The team is seeking evidence linked to the American aviator’s aircraft. The search was temporarily placed on hold because of difficult weather conditions, but activities have now restarted.
Earhart’s disappearance has prompted continuing efforts to locate the remains of her plane. The latest expedition is focused on a remote island in the Pacific, although no further details about the search area or the methods being used have been provided.
The three-day suspension highlights the practical challenges of conducting an operation in an isolated marine environment, where conditions can affect when teams are able to work. The expedition’s return to the search marks the latest stage in the attempt to uncover the aircraft’s wreckage.
The search is continuing, with its outcome not yet known.
