Almotamar.net, Saba - One of the black boxes from a Yemeni airliner has been located, a Yemeni official said Wednesday, a day after the airplane crashed into the Indian Ocean off the Republic of Comoros.
Recovering the box will take place soon, the official said.
On the other hand the Yemeni Airways Comp [any announced its intention to pay 20 thousand euro each of the victims family as a preliminary compensation.
Head of the board of directors of the Yemenia Company Abdulkhaliq al-Qadi said in a press conference he held at Sana’a International Airport the company would take one person from each family of the crashed plane victims to Moroni to follow up developments in the efforts of search and recovering of bodies , reiterating his confirmation that the crashed Yemeni plane was safe and it was maintained before its taking off from Sana’a and there was not any fault in it in addition to being maintained two months ago under supervision of a team from the manufacturing company.
Early on Tuesday, an Airbus 310-300 run by the Yemenia Airlines came down in bad weather with 153 passengers and a crew onboard.
A few of the missing people have been recovered so far. While only a 14-year-old French girl survived.
She is now being hospitalized in a Moroni hospital.
Rescue teams from Yemen, France and African states near the crash site are continuing search for bodies and debris.
Early today, two US planes and two French ships joined search.
In 2007 the opposition Yemen Congregation for Reform (Islah) Islamic oriented Party maintained its having political and media sway over the Joint meeting Parties (JMP) block, also consisting of Yemen Socialist Party and the Nasserite Unionist Organisation.
Yemen is practically a cool green paradise, with crisp mountain air, enormous acacia trees, pristine coral reefs and verdant fields bursting with khat, a psychoactive plant that induces mild euphoria.
Sana'a: Yemen will not be able to combat terror without regional and international cooperation, said a Yemeni official, who warned of the ramifications of letting Yemen fight terrorism alone.
Doctors use the word “crisis” to describe the point at which a patient either starts to recover or dies. President George W. Bush’s Iraqi patient now seems to have reached that point. Most commentators appear to think that Bush’s latest prescription – a surge of 20,000 additional troops to suppress the militias in Baghdad – will, at best, merely postpone the inevitable death of his dream of a democratic Iraq. Yet as “Battle of Baghdad” begins, factors beyond Bush’s control and not of his making (at least not intentionally) may just save Iraq from its doom.
