Heartbreaking photos: See Caskets containing remains of Brazilian footballers who died in plane crash

The bodies of Chapecoense players killed when the LaMia airline plane smashed into a mountain have been identified and are being embalmed and prepared for transport by military aircraft back to their homeland.


The heartbreaking pictures show the coffins laid out in the Colombian city’s San Vicente Mortuary with chairs dressed in white left out for grieving friends and relatives.

The caskets are due to arrive in the club’s home city of Chapeco as soon as midday on Friday and be taken directly to the club’s stadium for a collective wake that Brazilian President Michel Temer is expected to attend.

Instead of sitting excitedly in front of televisions to watch the action in Colombia, the people of Chapeco, a provincial city of about 200,000, trooped into their stadium to mourn and join in ecumenical prayer.
