Investigators in Lithuania have recovered the black boxes of the cargo aircraft that crashed near Vilnius airport on Monday.
In addition to the flight data recorder, the voice recorder has also been found, the Lithuanian Ministry of Justice announced on Tuesday. Both devices were removed from the wreckage at around noon and are now to be examined. The so-called black boxes could provide information about the currently unknown cause of the crash.
The Swift Aeroplane, which was flying from Leipzig to Vilnius for German logistics giant DHL, crashed near Ilnius airport early on Monday morning, just a few metres from a residential building. One person was killed.
