00:09near the last known location of a missing ATR 42-500 Fisheries surveillance plane.

00:40that it's true if it's a ship and so on.
00:44But the action we did before,
00:46is that we will take care of the people before.
00:52The aircraft was en route to Makassar after departing from Yogyakarta.
01:07There were 11 people on board, 8 crew members and 3 passengers.
01:11Around 400 personnel, including military and police units,
01:16have been deployed in the search and rescue operation,
01:18which has been hampered by bad weather.
01:21Authorities have not commented on the possible cause of the incident.
01:25The aircraft was chartered by Indonesia's Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries.
01:30Unconfirmed flight tracking data showed the plane was flying at approximately 11,000 feet,
01:35before rapidly losing altitude and disappearing from tracking systems.
