Jul 2, 2009: Teams searching Indian Ocean after a Yemini passenger aircraft crash on Tuesday rescued a 14-year-old French girl who is likely to be the only
survivor of the accident that killed 153 people aboard the jet.
The girl, found stuck to debris of the plane after 13 hours of the accident, has been identified as Bakari Baya from Marseille.
The accident had occurred when the Yeminia Airlines Flight 626, flying from the Yemeni capital of San'a to Grand Comore's Moroni, crashed off Comoran
coasts.
The reason behind the mishap is yet to be known.

I thought it was reported that they also pulled a toddler out of the water? Did s/he die or was that false?

She asked about her mom and they told her she survived b/c they didn't want her to go into shock when she's in such a fragile state right now.

Insane. It reminds me of a plane crash back in the 80's where a baby was the only survivor & she did an interview about it in her early 20's.
Can't remember her name though.
