Ethiopian Airlines: 'No survivors' on crashed Boeing 737

Interviews, news and analysis of the day’s global events.

An Ethiopian Airlines jet has crashed shortly after take-off from Addis Ababa, killing all on board. The airline said 149 passengers and eight crew members were on flight ET302 from the Ethiopian capital to Nairobi in Kenya.

Also on the programme: Western-backed Syrian forces have launched an attack on a Syrian village where members of the Islamic State group have been holding out -- we hear form a journalist on the ground; and president Abdelazia Bouteflika of Algeria has returned home after having tests in a hospital in Switzerland as protests continued over his plans to run for a fifth term in office.
