The bodies of 86 victims killed in Tuesday's plane crash have been identified, the Interfax news agency reported on Sunday.

Seventy-four bodies have been identified as those of residents of St. Petersburg, said the city's Labor and Social Welfare Committee, which is in charge of assisting relatives of the crash victims.

The remains of passengers from other places have been flown to their home regions.

In St. Petersburg, the burial ceremony has been set for Monday.

The Tupolev Tu-154 jet, operated by the Pulkovo Airlines, crashed 45 km north of the city of Donetsk in east Ukraine when it was on a flight from the Russian Black Sea city of Anapa to St. Petersburg.

All 160 passengers and 10 crew members on board, including dozens of children, died in the crash. Five foreigners--one Dutch, two Germans, one French and one Finnish citizen--were on the plane.
