New Facts: Pakistan Air Force reports five crew bodies missing

Pakistan Aviation Authority said Wednesday that Pakistan Navy and Pakistan Maritime Security Agency assets located the wreckage of a crashed cargo plane off Ormara in the Arabian Sea, and that the bodies of the five crew have not been found, adding "efforts are underway."

The aircraft was a K2 Airways Boeing 737 cargo plane that disappeared from radar over the Arabian Sea off Karachi with five crew members aboard, according to an earlier Dawn report.

Pakistan Navy and the Pakistan Maritime Security Agency used both air- and sea-borne platforms in the search that pinpointed the wreckage site off Ormara, the authority said.

Families of the five crew faced an agonising wait as rescuers confirmed the deep-sea find on Wednesday, Dawn reported.
