Bishoftu: Aviation authorities remain at the site of an Ethiopian Airlines plane that crashed south-east of the country's capital on Sunday, killing all 157 people onboard.
Air crash investigators and Red Cross workers spent Monday retrieving remains and personal items belonging to the 149 passengers and eight crew members, of 35 different nationalities, who were on flight ET302.
The Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, which was bound for the Kenyan capital Nairobi, came down minutes after taking off from Addis Ababa.
The incident has prompted China's civilian aviation authority to order all Chinese airlines to temporarily ground their Boeing 737 Max 8 planes as world carriers assessed the situation following the crash.

It said the order was carried out because the crash was the second after another of the planes fell into the ocean off the coast of Indonesia in similar circumstances on October 29, killing all 189 people on board.
