BILL HEMMER, CNN ANCHOR: We talked earlier this hour and in fact earlier here on CNN, about 45 minutes ago, the word about EgyptAir went down apparently outside of Tunis in northern Africa, the country of Tunisia.

Now getting word that that plane made an emergency landing. That's what we're hearing through EgyptAir sources back in Cairo, Egypt. Again, we'll continue to track that. There are some reports that there are survivors as a result of that incident there in Tunisia. But as we get more, we'll certainly pass it along to you.
