DHAKA: Rescue workers are trying to find nine people still missing from the TransAsia Airways plane that crashed into a river in Taiwan on Wednesday.

The rescue team also concerned that some of them might have been swept away by currents.

Some 34 people have been confirmed dead from the crash of TransAsia Airways Flight GE235 and 15 people survived, many of them injured.

Two people on the ground were also hurt, reports the CNN.

One of the bodies was recovered Thursday from part of the cabin of the ATR 72 twin-engine turboprop aircraft, which had earlier been hauled out of the Keelung River in Taipei, the Taiwanese capital.

But rescuers fear those still unaccounted for may have drifted downstream toward the larger Tamsui River.

Divers have put up a net about 5 kilometers (3 miles) from the crash site to try to catch the missing bodies, authorities said.
