One of Europe’s leading airlines, Swill Air, has suspended all its flights. The troubled company said in a statement that it was now in urgent talks with its banks to secure extra cash to continue its operations. Earlier several of Swiss Air’s plains had been impounded in European Airports amid report that the airline is about to go into receivership. Swiss Air’s problems are also threatening the survival of the Belgian national airline Sabina. Swiss Air had a big holding in Sabina and had promised a rescue package for it. Both companies had been in difficulties before last month’s attacks which caused severe a downturn in the air travel business.

But Pakistan has called the attack a particularly reprehensible act.

The army in Thailand says a drop in opium production in Afghanistan has doubled prices and prompted grows in the golden triangle region of Thailand, Burma and Laos to boost their output. A spokesman said satellite photographs of the area showed opium poppy plantations were expanding.
