* Search team finds what it believes is part of a door and a plane's tail
* Authorities say at least two people were travelling on stolen passports
* Interpol said its database with information about them wasn't checked
* The tickets they used were bought through through a Chinese airline
* Flight MH370 declared missing nearly 90 minutes after it was due to land
* The missing 227 passengers and 12 crew were from 14 different countries
* No terrorist organisations have claimed responsibility for the attack

Debris from the missing Boeing 777 flight is believed to have been found off Vietnam as Interpol investigates whether up to four passengers boarded the plane using stolen passports.

A Vietnamese search team has found what they believe is part of a door and an airplane's tail in the first major breakthrough in the hunt for missing aircraft.

The suspected fragments have been located around 50 miles from south-west of Tho Chu Island, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Investigators are narrowing the focus of their inquiries on the possibility that the plane disintegrated in mid-flight, a senior source said on Sunday

'The fact that we are unable to find any debris so far appears to indicate that the aircraft is likely to have disintegrated at around 35,000 feet,' said the source, who is involved in the investigations in Malaysia.

It comes as Interpol criticised Thailand's lax airport security after it emerged at least two passengers' passports were stolen, prompting fears that terrorists might have used them to get on board the Malaysia Airlines flight MH307
