Rescue teams climb to plane crash site in SW Iran

The teams are investigating the area for transferring the dead bodies to the base of the mountain through air or land, said Mohsen Momeni.

'The plane has been broken to different parts; however, finding the black box of the plane is on the agenda,' he said.

An ATR passenger plane belonging to Aseman Airline crashed close to Semirom, south of Isfahan province, on Sunday when it was flying from Tehran to Yasouj.

All 59 passengers and 6 crew members of the plane are feared dead in the incident.
