The bodies of the members of the Brazilian soccer team Chapecoense, who were killed in a plane crash in the Andes mountains last week, will begin their journey home to Brazil. The plane, carrying the team and their entourage, crashed on its way to the Copa Sudamericana final in Colombia. All 71 people on board were killed.

Identification and Repatriation Process
