Just two survivors have been rescued following a fatal plane crash in South Korea.

All passengers and four crew members on board the aircraft have been confirmed dead.

The Boeing 737-800 flight crashed after landing at Muan International Airport this morning.

The Jeju Air flight 7C2216 from Bangkok was reportedly  making a second attempt at a crash landing after its landing gear failed to open. The plane hit the runway but failed to stop, crashing into a wall and bursting into flames.

The government in South Korea has declared a seven-day period of national mourning as an investigation gets underway.
