(25 Mar 2022) Five days after the crash of a passenger jet in mountainous southern China, the disaster's cause remains a mystery while the search for the plane's second black box continues.
Security around the crash site remains tight - each vehicle is being checked before being allowed onto roads leading to the crash site.
Families that were arriving at the village in previous days were not seen on Friday.
One-hundred-and-thirty-two people on board perished in the crash.
Videos circulated online showing some families were allowed inside the village near the crash site, laying flowers on the ground.
Meanwhile, hundreds of people, many in white hazmat suits, combed the impact zone and a much larger debris field along steep slopes for bits of the wreckage and the belongings and body parts.
Persistent rain has frustrated the task.
The remote location has required the use of dogs and hand tools, including metal detectors more often seen at airports.
The China Eastern Boeing 737-800 left a 65-foot-deep hole when it fell from the sky Monday.
