An airliner with more than 200 passengers and crew on board has burst into flames after landing at Khartoum Airport in Sudan. Many people managed to escape. Reports from the airport are confused, but it is thought that about half of those on board were killed. Amber Henshaw reports from Khartoum.

Despite poor weather conditions in the Sudanese capital, the Sudan Airway's plane managed to land at Khartoum International Airport. Officials say the aircraft was taxing to the terminal when a fire started in one of the engines. Flames rapidly engulfed the aircraft.

Three of the biggest Internet service providers in the United States have agreed to block access to child pornography websites. In an unprecedented move, Verizon, Sprint and Time Warner Cable have agreed to shut down websites that carry images of child sexual abuse. In France, all service providers agreed to block access to child porn sites from September. Nick Miles reports.

Several organizations and governments around the world work with the international policing organization, Interpol, which has played a key role in tracking down the people who spread and view child pornography. Now governments have begun trying to block its supply as well. A number of European nations, including Britain and Sweden, along with Canada and New Zealand, have reached agreements with Internet service providers to block child porn sites. The announcements from New York and France add momentum to that strategy. But because of its rapidly changing nature, policing the Internet is notoriously difficult.

Former King Gyanendra of Nepal is spending his last night at the royal palace in Katmandu, where Nepalese monarchs have lived for more than 200 years. The authorities in Nepal, which was declared a republic last month, say the former king will move into his new home on Wednesday. Charles Haviland reports from Katmandu.

Home Minister Krishna Sitaula now says that when Gyanendra leaves the palace on Wednesday, details of which position he keeps will be publicized. And Mr. Sitaula said he believed that the crown, with its many precious stones, and the scepter, will be handed over to the government. Palace sources say the ex-king will call an unprecedented press conference on the day he moves. The newspaper has meanwhile published photos of his new temporary residence, in a forest outside Katmandu. They show a large and comfortable but ordinary-looking house, not a place warranting the description of palace.

As governments around the world grapple with the problems caused by the surging food and basic commodity prices, the President of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni, has said the country's main problem was a lack of access to markets, not food shortages.

"We are very happy with this food problem. Why? Because we produce a lot of food, and our problem has been the market. Now we hear that people in the world have no food, and yet for us, we're stuck well with food. We produce 10 million metric tons of bananas, and 40 percent of it rots because we have nowhere to sell it. We produce, we have been producing so much milk, we're pouring it."

Meanwhile, the United Nations has reported the lowest level of food aid in 50 years as a result of soaring grain prices. A world food programme report says food aid deliveries last year were less than half what they were at their peak in 1999.
