ISTANBUL (AA) - Indonesian search and rescue teams are continuing to search for seven passengers, including three foreigners, of a helicopter that crashed Monday in Borneo, state-run news agency Antara reported.
Teams discovered the wreckage of the Airbus BK117 D-3, owned by Eastindo Air, near a waterfall in the Tanah Bumbu region, according to the report.
National Search and Rescue Agency (BASARNAS) operational director Yudhi Bramantyo said the body of one victim was found 100 meters (328 feet) from the burned-out wreckage, which he said likely still has the remaining bodies.
Yudhi said the agency is committed to recovering all the bodies.
The helicopter was reportedly carrying a pilot, an engineer and six passengers, three of whom were foreigners, from the US, Brazil and India.
Air traffic had lost contact with the chopper above South Kalimantan on Monday.
