The day’s biggest stories from the UK and around the world in pictures
Relatives of MH370’s passengers and crew have been told the flight ended in the middle of the southern Indian Ocean far from any landing sites.
Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak told a press conference in Kuala Lumpur that a new analysis by the UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch and tracking firm Inmarsat had revealed that MH370’s last position was in the ocean west of Perth.
“This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites,” he said. “It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that according to this new data Flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean.”
The trade union movement paid tribute to RMT leader Bob Crow today as thousands turned out at his funeral.
Trade unionists lined the route from near the 52-year-old’s house in Woodford, east London, to the City of London Cemetary in Manor Park.
Mr Crow’s coffin was carried in a horse-drawn carriage, in traditional East End style.
The four horses were dressed in blue and white plumage, the colours of Mr Crow’s beloved Millwall Football Club.
