Iranian rescuers have located the wreckage of a passenger jet that crashed in mountainous terrain on Sunday.
The Aseman Airlines flight left from Iran’s capital, Tehran, and was scheduled to land in the southwestern city of Yasuj, Iran, when it crashed over the Zagros Mountains with 65 passengers and crew aboard. There are expected to be no survivors, according to the BBC.
Heavy snow, fog and strong winds forced rescuers to call off the search on Sunday and grounded helicopters on Monday. As such, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards—a powerful part of the country’s armed forces—used military drones to find the wreckage before helicopters were deployed on Tuesday as conditions weather improved.
