It\u2019s nearly 8.30pm in Surabaya, and all search efforts for today are now over, so we\u2019re ending this live blog. Here\u2019s\u00a0our latest story on what happened today<\/a>, by my colleagues\u00a0Jonathan Kaiman<\/strong>,Paul Farrell<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Michael Safi<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Teams searching for\u00a0AirAsia flight QZ8501<\/a>\u00a0have begun recovering dozens of bodies from the Java Sea, as Indonesian officials confirmed that scattered debris found nearby came from the plane.<\/p>\n

A major search and rescue effort involving at least 30 ships and 15 aircraft from nine countries has been looking for the aircraft since it vanished early on Sunday morning while carrying 162 people from Surabaya, Indonesia, to\u00a0Singapore<\/a>. The findings mark a major breakthrough on the operation\u2019s third day.<\/p>\n

The flight\u2019s carrier, AirAsia Indonesia, an affiliate of the Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia, confirmed in a\u00a0statement posted on Facebook<\/a>that the debris belonged to the missing flight.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am absolutely devastated,\u201d AirAsia\u2019s chief executive,\u00a0Tony Fernandes<\/a>, said, according to the statement. \u201cThis is a very difficult moment for all of us at AirAsia as we await further developments of the search and rescue operations but our first priority now is the wellbeing of the family members of those on board QZ8501.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Indonesian television station TvOne reportedly broadcast images of a floating body, then apologised for showing the pictures after relatives of passengers in Surabaya saw the images on television and burst into tears.<\/p>\n

AFP reported that at least two relatives collapsed and had to be carried out on stretchers. \u201cMy heart will be totally crushed if it\u2019s true. I will lose a son,\u201d 60-year-old Dwijanto told the news agency.<\/p>\n

The Indonesian president, Joko Widodo, arrived in Surabaya after nightfall to meet the families.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
