An unusual twist to foreign news on Thursday. An Australian scientist, 104, declared he would kill himself because his time had come (and later carried out his wish), while in Malaysia, a 92-year-old became prime minister, the world's oldest elected leader.
In other news, US President Donald Trump welcomed three Korean-Americans who were released by North Korea and flown to the US.
And there were other celebrations, in Zimbabwe, where a woman married her British fiance five days after losing an arm after being attacked by a crocodile.
