Chinese authorities officially confirm that there are no survivors in the crash of a China Eastern plane earlier this week with 123 passengers and nine crew members on board
Searchers found the cockpit voice recorder on Wednesday but have yet to find the flight data recorder.
Dozens of victims' relatives had been waiting for days as rescue teams combed heavily forested slopes for plane debris and signs of survivors from Monday's disaster near the city of Wuzhou, Guangxi province.While no cause has yet been determined, online tracking data showed the plane rapidly dropped from an altitude of about 8,900 to 2,400 metres in just over a minute.
The cause has mystified aviation authorities, who have scoured the site's rugged terrain for clues as to what sparked China's deadliest plane crash in nearly 30 years.
