Germanwings crash: German town mourns school group

A memorial mass for people aboard a plane that crashed in the French Alps has been taking place in the German town of Haltern.

The group of students and teachers, from Joseph-Koenig school, were on Germanwings flight 4U 9525 which crashed en route from from Barcelona to Dusseldorf.

They had been on their way home after a week long exchange trip in Spain.
