The Dutch boy who was the sole survivor of a plane crash in Libya that killed 103 people has left for the Netherlands aboard a Libyan air ambulance.
Ruben van Assouw is being accompanied by his aunt and uncle on the flight from Tripoli, Dutch officials said.
Ruben was told only on Friday that his parents and brother died in the crash.

The head Libyan investigator has said the pilot reported no problems during the plane's approach to land.
The Dutch airport receiving Ruben has not been officially confirmed but there are reports it will be Eindhoven.
Ruben's aunt and uncle said their nine-year-old nephew was doing well under the circumstances.
"We have explained to Ruben exactly what happened," they said in a statement to journalists in Tripoli.
"He knows his parents and brother are dead. The whole family is going to bear the responsibility for Ruben's future," they said.
Ruben had been on holiday in South Africa with his parents, Trudy and Patrick van Assouw, and his older brother, Enzo.
"The time ahead will be a difficult period for us. We hope that the media will respect our privacy," his aunt and uncle added.
The family had been celebrating the parents' twelve-and-a-half year wedding anniversary, a Dutch custom.
Sedig Benzala, the head of the team caring for him, said Ruben was recovering well after a four-and-a-half hour operation to repair multiple fractures to his legs.
