A search is under way in Grenada for 44-year-old American citizen Elizabeth Waddell, who disappeared after apparently going swimming from the Grand Anse area in St George. Her husband, Cailen, travelled to the island with their daughter to assist the search, while the Royal Grenada Police Force is working with fishermen, boat operators and local residents along the southern coastline. Waddell’s friend said she was last seen near an Airbnb overlooking the bay and had left her phone behind.

Ann Widdecombe’s family announced that a private funeral will take place in the coming weeks, followed by a public memorial later in the year. The update follows the court appearance of Joshua Kerry, charged with her murder after she was fatally attacked at her Devon home. Prosecutors described the alleged assault, and investigators are examining potential political or terrorist motivations. Widdecombe’s public profile included roles in Reform UK and appearances on major television programmes.

Three British Airways pilots became ill with food poisoning during a flight to Heathrow after eating breakfast at a hotel in Hyderabad. One pilot was incapacitated mid‑flight and later required a 12‑hour operation after landing. All pilots filed Air Safety Reports, and British Airways stated passenger safety was not compromised while reviewing its hotel arrangements to identify the source of the contamination.
