RECIFE, Brazil (CNN) -- Three more bodies were found Sunday from the crash of an Air France plane off the coast of Brazil nearly a week ago, Brazilian officials said.
A boat from the Brazilian navy picks up debris in the Atlantic on Sunday.

More bodies could be seen and could be recovered within hours, they added.

The bodies of two males were found Saturday. But Brazilian air force and navy officials said it was not possible to identify the sex of the latest three bodies. Asked their condition, the officials declined to describe them, citing good taste and the victims' families.

The bodies, along with hundreds of other items, were found floating in water that was between 6,000 and 8,000 meters (4 to 5 miles) deep.

All the bodies and items recovered are confirmed as being from Air France Flight 447, which vanished over the Atlantic early Monday en route to Paris, France, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The area where the bodies and crash debris are being found is about 1,100 kilometers (700 miles) from the Brazilian coast.
