Many French nationals were thought to be on board the plane, France's Transport Minister Frederic Cuvillier said in Paris. He said after a government meeting that top civil aviation officials were holding an emergency meeting and a crisis cell had been set up.

"The plane was not far from the Algerian frontier when the crew was asked to make a detour because of poor visibility and to prevent the risk of collision with another aircraft on the Algiers-Bamako route," the airline source said.
