Police raided the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport on Friday, March 13, 2026, as part of the investigation into the 2024 Jeju Air plane crash that killed 179 people. The raid came after the recent discovery of some victims' remains at the site, prompting President Lee Jae Myung to order a thorough probe into the mishandled recovery efforts on Thursday.
