Now for a look at stories making headlines around the world and we start in the U.S.
One passenger aboard a Southwest Airlines plane has been killed after the jet had to make an emergency landing on Tuesday.
It marks the first death on a U.S. commercial flight since 2009.
For more on this and other international news we turn to our Ro Aram…
Aram… run us through what happened….
Well Semin… the Boeing 737 was heading from New York to Dallas with 149 people onboard.
It made an emergency landing in Philadelphia just before noon on Tuesday, local time.
The National Transportation Safety Board did confirm that one death had been reported, but did not elaborate on the specific circumstances.
Seven others are being treated for minor injuries and one is in critical condition.
Survivors say the plane suffered damage to one of its engines, which threw a piece of debris onto a window, causing it to break.
A woman sitting nearby was said to have seen serious injured as she was sucked toward the broken window.
After pulling the woman back inside, passengers attempted to block the opening with jackets and other objects, but their efforts all came to nothing as the objects were all sucked out of the plane.
Survivors also praised the pilot for regaining control of what would have been a steep downward fall.
Videos shot after the emergency landing show a badly damaged engine on the left wing.
The NTSB is on the scene to investigate the exact cause and is soon expected to have preliminary readouts of the aircraft's flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder.
