An Airbus A320 airliner has crashed in the French Alps between Barcelonnette and Digne, French aviation officials and police have said.
The jet belongs to the German airline Germanwings, a subsidiary of Lufthansa.
The plane had reportedly been en route from Barcelona to Dusseldorf and was carrying 142 passengers and six crew.
French President Francois Hollande said: "The conditions of the accident, which have not yet been clarified, lead us to think there are no survivors."

The plane was descending with 3000-4000 feet per minute, it's also not yet confirmed if they indeed crashed into a mountain or not.
Unless there's an official announcement from the investigators and/or authorities, I suspect that the media is just trying to get their own personal opinion out in the open, without any consideration of facts.

Sympathy should be with the survivors (if any) and the people that got left behind by those who were dear to them.
