It might take days before rescuers can finally confirm whether the suspicious objects belong to the missing plane, the staff member with the Australian Maritime Safety Authority, reached from Beijing, told Xinhua on telephone.

He, who declined to give his name, did not further elaborate on the ongoing search mission.
