China Eastern Airlines plane crash rescuers find no survivors

HONG KONG – An army of rescuers in southern China has found no sign of survivors after being crushed by wreckage at the site where a China Eastern Airlines Corp. crashed on Tuesday. Boeing 737 with 132 people fell to the ground the day before.

More than 2,500 rescuers had descended to the scene of the crash by Tuesday evening, local officials told reporters at a livestream press briefing. They collected identification cards, a wallet and the ripped remnants of a school book, among other items that may have belonged to the passengers, according to footage and photos published by state media.
