The Qantas flight was travelling from Auckland to Sydney when it ran into trouble

The Qantas plane travelling from Auckland to Sydney has touched down safely after suffering engine troubles.

Pilots issued a mayday call about an hour out from the destination.

It quickly became the world’s most-tacked flight. 100,000 people flooded to FlightRadar24 to monitor QF1544 as it made its descent.

The initial mayday was then downgraded to a PAN, or a Possible Assistance Needed, shortly before its arrival.

Qantas has provided a short statement, saying, in line with standard procedure, the aircraft was met by emergency services.

The airline will share further information about this incident once the plane has been assessed by engineers. #Qantas #featured #trending

Israel and Hamas agree to release hostages in U.S.-brokered deal, marking a potential turning point in Gaza conflict.

In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Israel and Hamas have agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages under a U.S.-brokered framework. The deal pairs prisoner exchanges with an Israeli troop pullback and expanded aid access, marking a potential turning point in the two-year Gaza conflict.

The agreement, set for approval by Israel’s cabinet, could pave the way for lasting peace if both sides uphold the terms. It follows weeks of negotiations led by U.S. envoys and regional mediators in Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye.

As international agencies prepare to facilitate aid and logistics, the world watches to see whether this fragile deal can hold and bring relief to millions affected by the war.
