The search for possible survivors from a plane crash off the Comoros islands continues - although authorities say hopes are slim

A child pulled from the Indian Ocean after a Yemeni jetliner crash is said to be in good condition. So far, the 14 year-old girl is the only known survivor of the accident. On Tuesday, the Airbus 310 which was on its way from Sanaa in Yemen to Moroni went down in rough weather as it approached the Comoros Islands. More than 150 people are feared dead. In Paris, angry Comoros Islands expatriates staged a protest at the city's main airport saying that unsafe planes were being used in flights to their home islands.
