Mystery as man dies on US flight but then completely disappears
The body of a passenger who died mid-air on a Turkish Airlines flight has reportedly gone missing. Flight TK79 took off from Istanbul and was in the air for almost 12 hours when a passenger had a 'severe medical emergency' on July 13. The unnamed individual died while the plane was flying over Greenland, with the decision being made to carry on to Chicago in the US. This is because Chicago O'Hare Airport had suitable medical facilities to deal with an in-flight death, according to Aviation A2Z. However, after touch down, the dead body has seemingly disappeared into thin air. Turkish Airlines say the corpse was removed from the plane and transferred to a flight to San Francisco, the New York Post reports. But the local medical examiner's officers told US media that it never received the body, according to San Francisco news site SFGATE. The Cook County office also does not have records documenting the death or confirming a transfer. The remaining passengers continued on their way to San Francisco in a separate flight. No more information has been released about the identity of the person who died on board Flight TK79. Metro has approached Turkish Airlines, Chicago Airport and Cook County Medical Examiner's Office for comment. Mid-air flights are as rare as 0.21 deaths per million passengers. More Trending In March, a woman died on an easyJet flight from Tenerife to Liverpool, despite the efforts of passengers who tried to save her life. The flight was diverted to an airport in northern Spain and the woman died before she could be treated. A Turkish Airlines plane made another emergency landing in New York in October last year after the pilot suddenly fainted and died in the middle of the flight. The pilot 'collapsed during the flight,' Turkish Airlines spokesman Yahya Üstün wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

GSK's blood cancer drug gets EU approval
July 24 (Reuters) - The European Union has approved GSK's (GSK.L), opens new tab drug Blenrep to treat relapsed or treatment-resistant forms of a cancer affecting blood plasma cells, the British drugmaker said on Thursday. EU regulators approved Blenrep after phase III trials showed the drug, when used in combination with standard treatments, extended progression-free survival and improved overall survival in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, GSK said. The approval comes a day after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration extended its review of the drug as a combination treatment for the same illness. The FDA's panel of independent experts had last week recommended against the drug, citing concerns about previously documented risks of eye-related side effects. The EU approval marks the sixth regulatory nod for Blenrep combinations, with applications still under review across all major markets. The drug delivers a cell-killing agent directly to tumour cells while limiting damage to healthy tissue — unlike conventional chemotherapy. Multiple myeloma is the third most common blood cancer globally and is generally considered treatable but not curable. It affects the immunity-boosting plasma white blood cells.
