Passenger dies aboard ANA flight from Paris.
An All Nippon Airways (ANA) passenger plane bound for Tokyo from Paris has made an emergency landing at an airport in the Russian Far East after a passenger died of a stroke, an airlines official said.

The ANA Boeing 747 jumbo jet made an emergency landing in Khabarovsk after a 57-year-old Japanese woman passenger died of a stroke during the flight, the official said.

"One woman who appears to be a Japanese became sick and a doctor who happened to be on board advised that the plane land in Khabarovsk," the official told the Reuters news agency.

Flight 206, with about 330 passengers on board, left Khabarovsk for Tokyo shortly after she was pronounced dead, the official said.

Earlier there were reports that several people had died during the flight but the claims were later retracted and attributed to a translation error.
