South Korea has suspended its propaganda broadcasts across the border to North Korea, following the election of new president Lee Jae-myung, who wants to improve relationships with Seoul's Communist neighbour. According to the South's military, Pyongyang has followed suit by switching off its loudspeakers near the Demilitarised Zone. It comes as a relief to local residents, who have had to contend with blaring sounds 24/7.
But first, the sole survivor of Air India Flight 171 says he felt like the plane "came to a standstill" for a few seconds, before crashing into a building. All remaining 241 people onboard the Boeing 787 Dreamliner died, and as the jet ploughed into a residential area, it caused more deaths on the ground – making this the world's worst air disaster in a decade.
