The remains of all passengers on the missing Indonesian plane, which went down in the Mount Bulusaraung region of South Sulawesi province, have been located seven days following the crash.
Andi Sultan, a representative from the National Search and Rescue Agency based in Makassar, confirmed to Detik News that the final body was found on Friday morning.
Earlier in the week, rescue teams had recovered eight deceased individuals from the mountainous terrain of Mount Bulusarong located on Sulawesi island. The last two bodies were located this morning.
The airplane was transporting officials from the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries on a mission to survey the local resources from the air.
At this point, only two of the deceased have been identified: cabin crew member Florencia Lolita and Deden Maulana.
The ATR 42-500 aircraft, which was operated by Indonesia Air Transport, lost communication on Saturday while flying in the Maros district, traveling from Yogyakarta to Makassar, the capital city of South Sulawesi.
Debris from the plane was discovered on Sunday, and it was confirmed that the aircraft was carrying ten individuals, including seven crew members and three passengers.
The flight's black box was successfully retrieved from the crash location by the combined search and rescue team.
