A plane carrying 120 British people who were caught in the massive Nepal earthquake last week arrived in Britain Thursday morning, local media reported.

Reports were that the plane, chartered by the country's department for international development, flew to Nepal to deliver relief supplies. On the return flight, passengers with children, and those with health conditions were given priority status in the queue. The youngest passenger was a three-month-old baby, according to a BBC report.

Meanwhile, more than 300 Britons who had no accommodation were being hosted by the British Embassy in Kathmandu, Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said on Wednesday night.

"The Foreign Office staff continue to work around the clock to trace British nationals and get them to safety in the wake of this catastrophe," he said.

Hammond said hundreds of Britons in Nepal had now been accounted for and British rescue and medics teams were working closely with the Nepalese army and authorities to locate British nationals in the more remote areas of the country and get them to safety.

A Briton was confirmed dead on Wednesday. Hammond said the victim was a resident of Hong Kong.
