Bodies have been recovered near where the missing AirAsia plane went missing and a "shadow" has been spotted on the seabed.
The bodies - which were not wearing life jackets - have been brought on board a navy ship, said Indonesia's National Search and Rescue Director SB Supriyadi.
Local television broadcast pictures of the bodies floating in the sea.
"At 12:50 the air force Hercules found an object described as a shadow at the bottom of the sea in the form of a plane," said Mr Supriyadi.
The bodies were found about six miles (10km) from where the plane last communicated with air traffic control.

Officials also confirmed that large items spotted earlier, including items resembling a plane door and an emergency slide, were part of the plane.
AirAsia boss Tony Fernandes said he was rushing to the scene and wrote on Twitter: "My heart is filled with sadness for all the families involved in QZ 8501.
"On behalf of AirAsia my condolences to all. Words cannot express how sorry I am."
The Airbus A320-200 disappeared from radar on Sunday on its way from Surabaya in Indonesia to Singapore.
There were 162 passengers on board, including one British man, Chi Man Choi, and his two-year-old daughter.

Gallery: History Of The Low-Cost Asian Airline
AirAsia was founded in 1993 by a Malaysian government-owned conglomerate called DRB-Hicom, which is involved in automotive manufacturing
AirAsia Malaysia was established in Malaysia in 2001. It expanded into Thailand in 2003 and Indonesia in 2004. It has also since launched subsidiaries in the Philippines and India
The aircraft's last request - to climb higher to avoid a storm - was turned down. Minutes later it fell off the radar.
Some 30 ships and 21 aircraft from South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and Indonesia have been scouring 10,000 nautical miles in the search for the plane.
