Ethiopia crash bodies will take days to releaseA rescue team carries bodies in bags at the crash site of Ethiopia Airlines near Bishoftu. “The process of identifying the victims will take at least five days,” Ethiopian Airlines spokesman Asrat Begashaw told reporters in Addis Ababa on Tuesday. Ethiopian Airlines’ Begashaw did not comment on where they would be investigated. A team from the Israeli volunteer rescue service ZAKA was hoping to join the crash site on Tuesday and help identify bodies, said Opher Dach, consul of Israel’s embassy in Ethiopia. But the Ethiopia disaster followed another crash involving the same model in Indonesia six months ago.
