Today, flight AF 447 from Brazil to France disappeared somewhere over the Atlantic and has probably crashed. The search for survivors is still underway as I’m writing this, but chances are fading fast. According to RFI:
Doctors and psychologists are taking care of relatives at Charles de Gaulle-Roissy airport. Most of the 216 passengers were registered as Brazilian nationals, 40 of the people on board were registered as French nationals and 20 German. There were also several Moroccans and Lebanese on board.
