Air Algerie flight AH5017, heading from Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, to Algiers, Algeria, crashed in Mali on July 24, killing all 118 people on board. The flight encountered a sandstorm 50 minutes into the flight, causing the pilots to request a change in course and, later, permission to return to Burkina Faso.
The black boxes were found and sent to France for investigation.
