A passenger plane crashed in southern France with 148 people on board, French officials said.
President Francois Hollande said there are "apparently no survivors."
The passenger jet, an Airbus A320 operated by Germanwings, crashed in the French Alps region near the town of Digne as it traveled from Barcelona to Dusseldorf, Hollande said.
"I want to express my solidarity to the family of the victims. We do not yet know the identities of the victims. It is a mourning we have to go through because it is a tragedy that has happened on our soil," he said.
