A child was rescued from the site where a Yemeni airliner crashed into the Indian Ocean off the Comoros Islands Tuesday. Three bodies have also been retrieved, along with debris from the plane.

The Airbus A310 plane, from Yemen's national airline Yemenia Air, crashed in stormy weather as it was approaching Comoros en route from Yemen, with 153 people, including an 11-member crew, on board.

According to reports, the five-year-old boy was pulled from the wreckage of the plane in the Indian Ocean.

Yemeni Airliner plunged into the Indian Ocean early Tuesday morning while flying from the Yemeni capital of Sanaa to Moroni on the main island of Grand Comore.
