"No survivors" were found at the crash site of the helicopter carrying Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi and his foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollhian, Iranian state media said on Monday.
"Upon finding the helicopter, there was no sign of the helicopter passengers being alive as of yet," state TV said.
