The bodies of four crew members of a Japanese military airplane that went missing Wednesday were found Thursday on Mount Takakuma in Kanoya, Kagoshima Prefecture, defense officers in Tokyo said.
Thursday's search for the remaining two crewmen was suspended in the evening, as was the search for the wreckage of the U-125 twin-engine Air Self-Defense Force jet.
The first crewman was found early in the day next to parts of the U-125 jet.
