Who's the woman in yellow? Survivor of Brussels attack identified

She is the woman in yellow reeling after the Brussels airport attack. The blast ripped open her yellow tunic, exposing her bra and stomach. Dust and blood covered her head. A foot dangled, shoeless, bleeding, as she clung to a bench of seats.

She looked at the camera as if wavering between collapse and strength.
Her identity is now known: Nidhi Chaphekar, 40, is a flight attendant from India who works for Jet Airways, according to her sister-in-law, Madhuri Chaphekar, who spoke to CNN.
