Korean authorities announced Wednesday that all 179 victims of the deadly Jeju Air plane crash have been identified, four days after the tragic accident.

The Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters confirmed the identities of the last five victims who had not been previously identified.

On Sunday, the Jeju Air aircraft carrying 181 people, including six crew members, belly-landed and crashed into a barrier. The crash claimed the lives of 179 passengers, leaving only two survivors, both flight attendants. (Yonhap)
