"The search for the aircraft was taken under special control by the head of the republic, Alexei Tsydenov," - said in a statement on the website of the regional government.

At the moment, in addition to aerial searches, there is also a ground search and rescue service.

The survey of the territory is carried out by two airplanes and unmanned aerial vehicles.

Earlier it became known that the data that the An-2 missing in Buryatia was found does not correspond to reality.
