Update: Malaysia Airlines Plane 'Crashes In Vietnam'

The Vietnam air force has spotted two oil slicks near where a Malaysia Airlines plane with 239 people on board is feared to have crashed into the sea.
The Boeing 777-200 was flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing when it vanished around two hours into the flight.
Vietnamese state media quoted a navy official as saying Flight MH370 crashed near Tho Chu island, off Vietnam's south coast, at around 2.40am local time.
All ships in the local area have been sent to the scene to look for survivors.
The US Navy is helping teams from Vietnam, Malaysia and Singapore search the vast waters in the Gulf of Thailand, between Malaysia and Vietnam.
Malaysia's Transport Minister Seri Hishammuddin said he was "looking at all possibilities" including a potential terror attack.
Malaysia Airlines said in a statement: "The families of all passengers on board MH370 are being informed.  
"At this stage, our search and rescue teams from Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam have failed to find evidence of any wreckage.
"The sea mission will continue while the air mission will recommence at daylight."
The plane was last detected on radar at 1.30am (5.30pm UK time) about 85 miles (135km) north of the Malaysian city of Kuala Terengganu, said Azaharudin Abdul Rahman, Malaysia's civil aviation chief.
