A rough summary:
- Identity of all 179 deceased has been confirmed via fingerprint and DNA profiling
- Joint Korean-US investigation team has established a temporary headquarters in the airport ground
- The team is converting CVR data into audio file which will take approximately two days
- Damaged FDR was deemed unrepairable in South Korea, and NTSB agreed with South Korean officials to send it to US for repair work

The investigation team confirmed via airport CCTV footage that the aircraft made contact with birds while flying north. During the engine examination, feathers and traces of blood were found in both engines. DNA analysis by a domestic expert agency identified the feathers and blood as belonging to the Baikal teal.
