Authorities say submarines searching for MH370 will only be deployed when another signal is detected.

MALAYSIA'S Prime Minister calls on the world to unite in prayer, saying he is "more optimistic" that MH370 can be found amid the discovery of two new signals.
Najib Razak tweeted that the update from Joint Agency Coordination Centre head and retired Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston had provided hope.
"Let's all pray," he wrote. "Through Angus Houston JACC informed us of d 2 new signals ... We are cautiously more optimistic."
Air Chief Marshal Houston said the number of transmissions detected by Ocean Shield now stood at four.
"(The) signals will assist in better defining a reduced and much more manageable search area on the ocean floor," he said. "The better Ocean Shield can define the area, the easier it will be for the autonomous underwater vehicle to subsequently search for aircraft wreckage."
"I believe we are searching in the right area, but we need to visually identify aircraft wreckage before we can confirm with certainty that this is the final resting place of MH370," Air Chief Marshal Houston said.

The news was warmly received by Malaysia's Acting Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein who tweeted that Air Chief Marshal Houston was "very professional" and "seems (like) a good man."
Air Chief Marshal Houston said data analysis of the first two detections found they were consistent with "the specification and description" of a flight data recorder.

According to work conducted by the Australian Joint Acoustic Analysis Centre at HMAS Albatross in Nowra NSW, it was not of natural origin and was "likely sourced" from specific electronic equipment.
Defence Minister David Johnston said he was confident that there is life in the black box despite the days that have passed.
"May I say the battery life in the black box transponder has a long way to go in our opinion, certainly several days into the future," Senator Johnston said.
