Iran officials find wreckage of deadly plane crash

Iran has located the wreckage of a passenger plane that went down in a mountainous part of the country earlier this week, killing all 65 people on board. A military drone was used to locate the crash site, and two helicopters were then dispatched to the snow-covered scene, Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps spokesman Ramezan Sharif told Iran's state television on Tuesday. "The plane had hit the top of the mountain before crashing 30 metres further down," Sharif said. The Aseman Airlines plane went down in the Zagros Mountains range in central Iran on Sunday during a domestic flight from the Iranian capital, Tehran, to the southwestern city of Yasuj. It had been carrying 59 passengers and six crew members, all of whom died in the crash, according to Iran's state-run Press TV.
