SAINT-DENIS - FRENCH officials now say the black boxes of the Yemeni Airbus 310 that crashed off the Comoros Islands have not been found.
The French army says a signal detected from the debris of the downed plane was from a distress beacon and not one of the plane's black boxes.
Commander Bertrand Mortemard de Boisse has told reporters that the frequency of the signal detected corresponded to one of the plane's distress beacons.
Earlier on Wednesday, two top French ministers had said one of the black boxes from Yemenia Flight IY626 that crashed early on Tuesday had been found. -- AP
