Lone survivor of the Yemeni Airbus crash

Sanaa : Yemen | 4 months ago  
Views: 133

Almighty God does make His presence felt and proves time and again that He is not a figment of imagination – He very much exists. How else can one explain the survival of a 14-year old girl in Flight IY-626 of the Yemeni Airbus A310 aeroplane that crashed in the Indian Ocean? Such a crash usually does not have any survivors, still this teenager survived – it was a miracle. One of the rescuers said that the girl was spotted swimming in the choppy waters and a line was thrown to her but she could not catch it – thereafter, the men reached her and got hold of her. She was shaking with fright as well as the cold conditions. Earlier it was reported that a 5-year old boy survived – apparently, that was not correct.
