This photo shows debris of the Air Algerie Flight AH 5017 scattered at the crash site in Mali’s Gossi region, west of Gao, on July 26, 2014. UN experts investigating the Air Algerie plane disaster in Mali have recovered the second black box from the doomed plane, a spokesman of UN peacekeepers in the country said on July 26. Officials who had already reached the remote, barren area described a scene of total devastation littered with twisted and burnt fragments of the plane that was carrying 118 on board, including entire families. No one survived the impact and France bore the brunt of the disaster with 54 nationals killed in Thursday’s crash of the McDonnell Douglas 83, which had taken off from Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso and was bound for Algiers.
