KUALA LUMPUR—Malaysian authorities said Monday that no debris from a missing Malaysia Airlines 3786.KU -4.00% jetliner had yet been recovered, despite a massive air and sea search under way for passengers and remains of the plane.
Rescuers at times on Monday gave seemingly conflicting reports on progress in a frustrating hunt for evidence that was punctuated with false leads in the open waters of the suspected crash zone.
A Vietnamese ship tracked down an object spotted from the air that resembled a life raft—only to confirm hours later that the object wasn't a raft and wasn't from the lost plane.
