At least nine Britons are among 157 killed in a plane crash in Ethiopia - with airlines around the world grounding the aircraft involved.
It was initially thought that seven British nationals had been on board Flight ET302, which crashed minutes after take-off from Addis Ababa with no survivors.
Questions are now being raised about the Boeing 737 Max 8 involved in the air disaster. It is the same model as the Lion Air plane which crashed into the sea off Indonesia last year,Ethiopia Airlines, whose new jetliner crashed shortly after take-off in clear weather on Sunday, says it has decided to ground its remaining four Boeing 737 Max 8s until further notice as"an extra safety precaution".
