A French court has opened hearings in the case of the 2009 crash of a Yemenia Airways flight that killed 152 people. The sole survivor, then aged 12, said it was important to "finally know the truth".
The Yemeni national airline, whose representatives will not be in the dock due to the country's civil war, faces a maximum fine of €225,000 for involuntary homicide and injuries in a trial expected to last four weeks.
