        No, because they're not from a plane wreckage where people died. Don't be so obtuse, it's unnecessary.

        hows this irresponsible? 1, these are items from the plane. Seats, airvests, etc. 2, they're reporting the news. It's their job

        if they said, 'Debris has been found, including seats and lifejackets' everybody would know what they look like.

        Like many others I would like you to explain the benefit of publishing these distressing images. Totally irresponsible.

        I really don't think you should be posting pictures of this, as people are waiting for news of their relatives. Very upsetting
