Yeti Airlines says all of its flights scheduled for Monday will not be operated.

The company says it is halting its operation for a day to mourn victims of the Pokhara plane crash this morning, which involved the company’s 9N-ATR aircraft.

Of 72 people on board, including four Yeti Airlines crew members, 68 have been found dead. The whereabouts of the remaining four is not confirmed but presumed to be dead.

The company says rescue and emergency flights, however, will take place if needed.

The government has declared a public holiday to condole with the families of the victims.

It has also commissioned a five-member team to investigate the Pokhara plane crash.
