Doctors say the Dutch boy who miraculously survived a Libyan plane crash that killed 103 people is in good condition following surgery.
Officials say the boy underwent surgery in Tripoli for fractures on both legs after being pulled from the debris of the Afriqiyah Airways plane. He is the only survivor.
The Dutch foreign ministry has identified the boy as a nine-year-old from the southern city of Tilburg named Ruben. A Netherlands newspaper, the Brabants Dagblad, says he was in South Africa on a safari with his parents and brother. Dutch officials says relatives of the boy arrived in Tripoli Thursday to visit him at the hospital
More than half of the passengers, 62, were vacationers from the Netherlands who were traveling home from South Africa. Travelers from nearly 10 other countries were on the Johannesburg-to-Tripoli flight. Most had plans to travel on to Europe.
