A passenger plane has crashed in Nigeria's biggest city Lagos, killing all 150 people on board. The airliner, operated by the Indian-owned Dana Air, was on a flight from the capital Abuja when it came down. From Lagos, Will Ross reports.
On crashing, the plane burst into flames, and there were chaotic scenes as people rushed to the area, black smoke billowing in the air. There were at least 150 people on board. None of them survived. The plane first tore into a printing works before hitting residential buildings. It's not yet clear how many people died on the ground. It's not known what caused the crash, which happened in overcast weather. Last month, a similar Dana airplane, possibly the same one, developed a technical problem and was forced to make an emergency landing in Lagos.
Saudi Arabia has dismissed a speech from the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, in which he repeated that the conflict in Syria was the result of foreign interference. The Saudi foreign minister accused Mr Assad of playing for time by accepting but not implementing a UN-backed peace plan.

The United States-based group Human Rights Watch says it has new evidence that the Rwandan military is aiding rebels in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It says Rwanda also offered shelter to the rebel leader Bosco Ntaganda, who's wanted by the International Criminal Court. Gabriel Gatehouse reports.
Human Rights Watch claims that Rwandan military officials have provided between 200 and 300 recruits to the Congolese rebellion since it began at the end of March. Human Rights Watch says Rwanda has also provided the rebels with ammunition and weapons. The leader of the mutiny, General Bosco Ntaganda, is wanted by the International Criminal Court on charges of war crimes. Human Rights Watch says that the general was allowed to cross over into Rwanda on at least one occasion in the past few weeks to meet with Rwandan military officials. The Rwandan government has categorically denied any involvement in the mutiny.
The biggest rubbish dump in Brazil has been closed after more than three decades in operation. The dump, near the main airport of Rio de Janeiro, will be replaced by a modern recycling plant. More than 1,700 people are likely to lose their jobs as Paulo Cabral reports from Sao Paulo.
The mountains of garbage that lay on the banks of the Guanabara Bay and along the mangroves have severely contaminated the area. The landfill, however, was also a source of revenue for more than 1,600 scavengers. All of them will receive compensation of approximately $7,000 and have been promised professional training to find work.

A top Colombian drug lord, Diego Perez Henao, has been arrested by police in neighbouring Venezuela. He was the leader of Los Rastrojos, a drug cartel that has grown quickly in the past four years, exporting tonnes of cocaine to the United States via Mexico. Arturo Wallace reports from Bogota.
The news of the arrest was very well received in Colombia, where President Juan Manuel Santos turned to his Twitter account to thank the Venezuelan authorities for their collaboration. And the Venezuelan Minister of the Interior, Tareck el Aissami, said the idea was to turn Mr Perez Henao over to Bogota. According to the local police, Mr Perez Henao controlled half the members of the paramilitary criminal organisations involved in drug trafficking in Colombia. And the US State Department had offered a $5m reward for any information leading to his arrest.
