Escaping the burning Japan Airlines plane

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Escaping the burning Japan Airlines plane

We speak to Anton who was among the passengers evacuated from a burning plane in Japan

We speak to Anton who was among the passengers evacuated from a burning plane in Japan this week.

We speak to a young man who was among the passengers evacuated when a Japan Airlines plane burst into flames on the tarmac earlier this week. We also speak to pilots about the incident and about their experiences of “near-misses”.

The UN has rejected Israeli accusations of slow aid deliveries to Gaza. We hear another message from an MSF worker who recorded it just before he left Gaza. 

Hezbollah has repeated its warning of a fierce response to the killing of a Hamas leader, Saleh Al-Arouri, in Beirut on Tuesday. Tensions are still high in his hometown in the occupied West Bank, following the killing. We speak to our correspondent there.  

Our Cyber Correspondent Joe Tidy explains why and how young people are turning to AI therapist bots. 

Presenter: Lukwesa Burak.
