Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia will soon send a "high-level team" to China to meet the relatives of passengers of the missing Malaysian jet and update them on the multinational effort to find the aircraft.

The team will include officials from the office of Prime Minister Najib Razak, the Foreign Ministry, and Malaysian Airlines and be led by Akbar bin Haji Abdul Samad, an operations commander of the airforce, Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said at a news conference.
Reports from outside the press conference room said there were scuffles as relatives of passengers on flight MH370 were stopped from entering the room by Malaysian police.
