The head of Interpol says the disappearance of a Malaysian passenger jet does not appear to be related to terrorism.
Interpol Secretary General Ronald Noble said Tuesday new information about two Iranian men who used stolen passports to board the plane makes terrorism a less likely explanation for the jet's disappearance.
Meanwhile, the Malaysian military said it has radar evidence that the Boeing 777 flew hundreds of kilometers west to the Malacca Strait. That is far away from the last location civilian authorities had reported, and well off its intended flight path from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared from radar without any distress calls Saturday, about an hour after leaving Kuala Lumpur.
Interpol, the international police agency, released photos showing the two Iranians boarding the plane at the same time. They are identified as 19-year-old Pouria Nour Mohammadi and 29-year-old Seyed Mohammad Reza Delavar.
Malaysian Police Inspector General Khalid Tan Sri says the 19-year-old was likely trying to migrate to Germany.
