WHO winter warning – Denmark considers closing

Published

Following two months of zero Covid-19 restrictions, Copenhagen is one of a number of European nations considering the reintroduction of certain rules to curb the Delta variant’s spread

Denmark has previously declared that Covid is “no longer an illness which is a critical threat to society”, but is now battling a surge in new infections.

Danes have been living a life of normalcy for quite some time, meaning the re-introduction of restrictions may be tough to impose.

Nightclubs, concert venues and other hospitality establishments have reopened to large crowd numbers and masks are not currently mandated.

This all comes as the World Health Organisation warns that more than half a million Europeans could die of Covid-19 over winter.

On Monday, the Danish government proposed reintroducing a digital “corona pass” to prove vaccination status, which will be required for entry into many of the country’s venues if passed by parliament.

European nations are now also increasingly turning their attention to booster shots in an attempt to halt the spread of Covid over the next critical winter months.

Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashes in India en route to London, injuring passengers amidst safety and production challenges for Boeing.

In Short:
An Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashed in Ahmedabad on June 12, 2025, while flying to London, injuring many passengers. This incident poses significant issues for Boeing, which is already dealing with safety concerns, and has prompted condolences from both Indian and U.K. leaders.

A Boeing 787 Dreamliner, operated by Air India, crashed in Ahmedabad, India, on June 12, 2025, while en route to London’s Gatwick Airport.

The aircraft departed at 1:38 p.m. local time with 230 passengers, including 169 Indians, 53 British, one Canadian, and seven Portuguese nationals.

Air India confirmed that injured passengers are being taken to nearby hospitals.

The 787 Dreamliner had operated for 14 years without a fatal incident before this crash.

Boeing response

Boeing expressed awareness of the situation and is gathering more information, although shares dropped drastically following the news.

This incident presents a significant challenge for Boeing, which has faced safety and production issues recently.

Local media reported smoke emanating from the crash site, and emergency responders were seen transporting individuals on stretchers.

The plane lost location data at 625 feet altitude and descending at 475 feet per minute before the crash.

The incident occurred in a residential area, prompting condolences from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who stated his government will assist local authorities.

Air India, recently acquired by Tata Sons, has been navigating difficulties as the former state-run carrier.

The jet crash is part of a troubling year for aviation, following other serious incidents, including a 2018-2019 Boeing 737 MAX crash that resulted in over 300 fatalities.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer expressed concern for affected families as the situation unfolds.
