active search, it s not a recovery effort at this point. but cnn does confirm 14 are dead from this mudslide. that s the latest we re getting from investigators. thank you. we want to get caught up on some of the other stories we re following. ukraine s interim president has ordered the withdrawal of all ukrainian forces from crimea. russian troops seized most of ukraine s bases in the peninsula. the united states doesn t know russia s intentions, but believes they have enough troops they could move against the ukraine at any time. text messages between reeva steenkamp and oscar pistorius were read in court today. a police captain testified that 90% of the messages between the two were loving.
we may never get that. and they re trying to give the families the time to move on, to begin the grieving process. i think that is really they re already grieving. their family has been gone into into the third week. they have the trace, they have the piece of the puzzle up on the ship, he is making this announcement. talk about premature. it sounded like he just wanted to close the book on this thing in a 2 minute and 30 second analysis. after they have gotten facts wrong, contradicted themselves, and been proven wrong on multiple occasions. all right, kathleen, you made a did point. you were looking into the financials. last year was very profitable for most of the airlines, only a few were unprofitable, malaysia airlines has been third from the bottom. they are $1.2 billion in debt. the reason i bring it up, if a company starts to lose money
investigation and further thoughts yesterday, we shared everything that we have, there s no data that we re keeping back. i think a lot of people didn t realize until this, that it s quite common for planes to disappear in a sense from radar, when it s over large bodies of water, it s up to the pilots at a certain point to communicate their location. is there a technology that could change that? yeah, there s no question, we could do it now, there are 10,000 wide bodied jets fitted with the same system that was on board this malaysian airline. it s a 64 kilo bits system capable of sending out text based messages with the zeta where the plane is, what speed it s going at, what direction it s going in and anything else you want to, included in the packets of data. other systems that is being looked at, allows up to half a mega bit, the same as a cnn journalist would use to report back from a front line story somewhere, that could allow more
and malaysian military inputting off, holding back and covering up the truth of the incident as well as trying to deceive the families of passengers and people of the entire world. while there s no evidence of a cover-up, there is the next in question of just what did take down the airplane. there are new questions about the experience of co pilot hameed fareed. this was his first flight on a 777 without a supervisor. in line with company policy. and new details about the flight s path, a source close to the investigation tells cnn that military radar tracking shows the plane flew as low as 12,000 feet, at some point before it disappeared from radar. as the search continues in the south indian ocean, new signs of hope for locating the wreckage. we re looking for debris in the water. we saw a number of objects
a price point that mattered, they ve been amazing in that. they ve been less amaze in figuring out how to get it from point a to point b safely. we have to be a little bit fair. in deepwater horizon, for example, they had to go back and had to renovate basically every deepwater rig that s out there in service. after the spill you re saying. after the spill, of course. it s, of course, because of people like kate that they have to do this. the reason they did a good job about cleanup is because people were watch it every day on their television. without that oversight, you don t get that kind of activity from the oil companies. blowout preventers, again, all had to be reconfigured for deepwater. and deepwater will be arguably the safest way to extract oil now, although not 100% safe by any means. do you think that? no. i don t. i mean, 3%, 3% is the amount of oil that they were able to get with skimming, with booming out of the gulf of mexico. 8% total was skimmed or burne
