A black box has been recovered from the crashed Chinese passenger jet carrying 132 people, an aviation official says.
A flight recorder “from China Eastern MU5735 was found on March 23,” Liu Lusong, a spokesman for China’s aviation authority, tells reporters.
Nobody on board the flight is believed to have survived the crash, and recovery efforts have been hampered by heavy rains at the crash site.
