Lebanon's defence minister speaks out

Lebanon's defence minister has said An Ethiopian Airlines plane that crashed into the sea off Beirut was probably brought down by bad weather.
But Elias Murr said the cause of the crash could only be established after the flight recorders were recovered.
The Addis Ababa-bound flight plunged into the Mediterranean shortly after take-off from Beirut in a storm.
All 90 people on board the Boeing 737-800 are feared dead. At least 24 bodies have been pulled from the sea.
An air and sea search is continuing in the area.
