More bodies, plane wreckage found off Tanzania


MAFIA, Tanzania (Reuters) - French marines and divers found aircraft parts and five more decomposing bodies off Tanzania's coast on Thursday, hundreds of miles from where a Yemeni jet crashed into the Indian Ocean, officials said.

A doomed Yemeni Airbus 310-300 plunged into the ocean in bad weather off the Comoros archipelago last week where only one survivor -- a 14-year-old Franco-Comoran girl -- out of 153 people on board was found. The hunt for other survivors was abandoned this week.
