A man in his 60s has died after a crash near Stansted Airport, police said.
Officers were called at 02:30 BST on Sunday when it was reported a silver Renault Megane had left the road near to the Esso service station on Start Hill, Essex.
The road was closed while emergency services responded but reopened shortly before 08:00, Essex Police added.
The force appealed to anyone with CCTV or dashcam footage to come forward.
A Sudanese man whose internet café was destroyed during racist disorder in Belfast last summer has described enduring a "financial nightmare" after his business insurance claim was rejected.
It comes as an author of a new report said the anti-immigration protest that led to violent rioting was "hijacked" by the far-right outside Northern Ireland to shape their own narrative.
Mohammed Idris' Bash Technologies was burnt down and he has struggled to recover financially or rebuild his business.
He was told his insurance claim was "regrettably irrecoverable" because the damage to his rented premises was done in a riot.
Mr Idris is now going through the "very long and difficult process" of seeking support through a government scheme.
The report by the technology organisation Rabble Cooperative mapped "far-right activity" on social media.
It found that the intervention of accounts from the Republic of Ireland and Great Britain, including that of anti-Islam activist Tommy Robinson, "elevated" last August's protest into "an international spectacle" online.
It was the murder of three children in Southport at the end of July that sparked riots in towns and cities across the UK.
This triggered the anti-immigration march in Belfast, which descended into violent street disorder and the burning down of a number of Muslim-owned businesses – one of which was owned by Mr Idris.
"It's affected my mind, it's a nightmare," he told BBC News NI.
"All this process, all these hassles – it is a mind torture. I'm exhausted. We are just living day to day."
He said the struggle of having to repair the destroyed premises before handing it back to the landlord, and trying to rebuild the business elsewhere in the city, had become "too much" for his wife, children and him.
"For no reason, I have to go through all this," he said.
"I'm supposed to be stable and I have to look after my business and my family, but unfortunately I have to deal with consequences of some people who just attacked me for no reason."
The report also looked at several other anti-immigration and racist incidents that have taken place across Northern Ireland over the past year.
The aim for Rabble Cooperative – a tech company that carries out work for human rights organisations – was to determine the extent to which the disorder and attacks were being fuelled by orchestration, disinformation and misinformation online.
Dessie Donnelly, who co-authored the report, told BBC News NI that only "a relatively small" and "loose network of people and accounts" were identified locally as having promoted the rally.
He told BBC News NI that we in Northern Ireland had been "the playthings of other forces".
In its examination of the August 3 protest, the report, which was commissioned by the Committee on the Administration of Justice and Unison, identified 35 accounts as having promoted it on Facebook with "relatively low" engagement.
The majority of those accounts – 69 per cent – could be characterised, according to the report, as self-identifying with Ulster loyalism.
However, social media engagement surged when the then Irish Freedom Party member Tracy O'Hanlon subsequently posted a promotional image of the event on X.
Tommy Robinson, former leader of the now-defunct English Defence League, then posted on August 2 – the day before the protest took place.
According to the report, those two posts garnered a total of more than 7,000 positive engagements and around 100,000 and 200,000 views respectively.
During the protest in Belfast city centre, a number of anti-immigrant protesters from Dublin joined the crowd – waving a tricolour alongside union flags.
A video of this was shared by Republic of Ireland-based anti-immigrant activist Mick O'Keeffe on X, achieving 5.7 million views.
According to the report, the video and accompanying text were subsequently amplified across a wide-range of anti-immigrant Facebook accounts, seemingly based in Britain and the Republic of Ireland, and further amplified by accounts on Instagram.
"What you saw from this kind of amplification was really framing a public narrative based on disinformation and trying to popularise that as much as possible," Mr Donnelly said.
"What the local accounts lacked that the external accounts had was sophistication in terms of how they played the platforms' algorithm.
"Locally, they weren't getting much traction in terms of views, in terms of shares, in terms of likes.
"And then when it moved to the more notorious far-right actors, you saw replication of content, you saw all the signs that they knew how to play the algorithm and suddenly you're getting 2.3 million views on something."
He said the external perception this created was that nationalists and unionists in Northern Ireland were uniting against immigration, which in reality, he said, did not appear to be the case.
"Clearly the intervention of external actors was very big because you saw that we were part of a bigger agenda or we were the tail-end of someone else's story or narrative. That we were being slotted into a narrative," Mr Donnelly added.
"That doesn't say that that sentiment doesn't exist here, but it certainly doesn't gain the traction that it does across the water or in our neighbouring jurisdictions, it just doesn't happen.
"So realising that we were the playthings of other forces was very telling."
Original Coronation Street star Philip Lowrie has died aged 88.
Lowrie, who appeared in the first episode of the ITV soap in 1960 as the original bad boy Dennis Tanner, died on Friday, his publicist Mario Renzullo said.
"My client and very dear friend, Philip Lowrie, the beloved actor renowned for his role as Dennis Tanner on Coronation Street, passed away yesterday," he said.
"His death marks the end of an era for the world's longest-running soap, where he became a cornerstone of its storytelling."
Lowrie was born in Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester.
When the soap started more than six decades ago, Lowrie's character was seen as a national heartthrob thanks to his roguish role.
Dennis was introduced as the son of Elsie Tanner, and moved in with his mother after being released from prison.
Lowrie had originally auditioned for the role of Ken Barlow prior to the show's launch, and appeared in the first episode at the age of 24.
William Roache was soon cast as Ken for the beginning of the soap and became a regular sparring partner for Dennis.
He left the Street in 1968, when he married Jenny Sutton and moved to Bristol, and did not return until 2011.
According to Mr Renzullo, Lowrie was presented in September 2011 with a certificate by the Guinness World Records for being the person with the longest gap between television appearances as the same character in the same show.
Dennis soon got back in touch with newsagent Rita Sullivan (Barbara Knox), who was his sweetheart when she first appeared in the show in 1966, and they tied the knot when he came back.
He left the soap again in 2014 and was later killed off without making another appearance on screen.
Lowrie's mother saved for his fees to go to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (Rada) in London after he left school.
After graduating three years later, he soon received his first parts in the West End, appearing with Dame Margaret Rutherford and Peggy Mount in the play Farewell, Farewell, Eugene.
He also appeared on Victoria Wood's comedy shows, such as Victoria Wood's All Day Breakfast, Victoria Wood, Pat and Margaret, Live In Your Own Room, and We'd Quite Like To Apologise.
His later stage lead roles in the 2000s and 2010s included being in Dame Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap, The Case Of The Frightened Lady and The Lady Vanishes.
King Charles has attended the Royal Windsor Horse Show at Windsor Castle.
The equestrian event, which was a favourite of his mother Queen Elizabeth II, was first staged in 1943 to help raise funds for the war effort.
The show is now the only one in the UK to host international competitions in show jumping, dressage, driving and endurance.
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and the Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Bahrain, Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, were also seen with the King at the event on Saturday.
This year's Royal Windsor Horse Show, which opened on Thursday and runs until Sunday, also includes more than 120 showing classes.
The inaugural event in 1943 was attended by King George VI, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, and the two young princesses, Elizabeth and Margaret.
Over the years, Queen Elizabeth II would often be seen walking among the stalls, dressed informally and wearing a headscarf.
She also entered her home-bred horses and ponies in classes at the show.
Two people found dead at a property in Devon both suffered gunshot wounds, police have said.
Husband and wife, John Perkins, 66, and Kathryn Perkins, 67, were pronounced dead at a property at Briar Close, Exmouth, at 18:30 BST on 7 May.
A spokesperson for Devon and Cornwall Police said the fatalities were linked and Mrs Perkins' death was being treated as suspicious.
They added that two legally held firearms had been located at the property and been seized.
Fires are being caused by e-bikes or e-scooters in London "every other day", a fire chief has warned after a fire left 11 people needing hospital treatment in Bethnal Green, east London, last week.
London Fire Brigade (LFB) chiefs believe the fire was caused by the failure of a lithium-ion battery.
Richard Field, dep ass commissioner for prevention and protection at LFB, said e-bikes and e-scooters were one of the capital's "fastest-growing fire risks".
"Since 2023, we have seen a fire, on average, every other day and these fires are ferocious, producing extremely toxic smoke," he said.
Many recent fires have involved second-hand e-bikes or e-scooters which have been modified using parts bought online which do not meet the correct safety standard, Mr Field added.
The Bethnal Green fire on 9 April saw 50 people evacuated after it spread through the block in Cornwall Avenue.
One man jumped from a second-floor window to escape the flames but was unhurt.
Mr Field said: "This would have been a terrifying ordeal for all those inside this building.
"Firefighters demonstrated great courage to bring multiple people, including one child, to safety.
"The condition of one of the 11 people taken to hospital is no longer life-threatening."
A family said they have felt haunted for 80 years by a piece of a lampshade made from human skin seized from a concentration camp and brought home for evidence.
The macabre object was given to then-Caerphilly MP Ness Edwards, who went with a parliamentary delegation to the Buchenwald concentration camp in April 1945 to gather evidence of the horrors of the Holocaust.
Buchenwald, near Weimar, Germany, had been chosen by the SS division of the Nazi regime as the place that produced objects made from human skin – preferably skin that had been tattooed.
Mr Edwards' daughter Baroness Liln Golding, 91, from Caerphilly, said it weighed heavily on her father for the rest of his life. The lamp has now been returned to the Buchenwald Memorial museum.
Recalling the moment she opened the door to him on his return, she said: "It was so traumatic just to see his face. I wanted to give him a hug. But I couldn’t.
"He said to me ‘don’t touch me, I'm covered in lice'. That moment was engraved in my heart, from my whole being."
The cost of the deal to transfer the sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius is the lead for the Telegraph and the Times – which both question the prime minister's claim that the total "net cost" of the deal to maintain a key military base there over a century would be roughly £3.2bn.
The Telegraph says its own analysis shows it is more likely to be around £30bn, a figure also suggested by the Conservatives.
It quotes the shadow foreign secretary, Dame Priti Patel, as saying that Labour are lying to British taxpayers with their "dodgy accounting".
The Times quotes Sir Keir who says the deal represents "value for money" with the cost "the same as running an aircraft carrier minus the aircraft".
The government's plans to release some prisoners in England and Wales early is the lead in the Daily Mail and the Daily Express.
The Express has spoken to the Justice for Victims campaign group – which includes the parents of Sarah Everard who was murdered by a policeman in 2021.
The paper says the group has described the plans as an "insult to all victims".
The i Paper carries a warning from former MI6 chief Sir Richard Dearlove that the Energy Secretary Ed Miliband's net zero plan is a threat to national security.
Sir Richard highlights the risk of using Chinese technology in UK wind farms, solar panels and electric cars because the microchips in products could be controlled remotely – leaving the UK "dangerously vulnerable".
The Mirror reports that Manchester United is "open" to bids for any of its men's players, after the club's failure to qualify for European football next season.
The paper says this has left it with a £100m "hole" in its finances. "Reds alert" is the headline.
According to research reported in the Times, dogs are increasingly being seem as "child surrogates" by their owners who choose to have a pet over a baby.
The paper says a study, published in the European Psychologist journal, noted that owning a dog could offer an opportunity to fulfil a nurturing drive similar to parenting but with fewer demands than raising "biological offspring".
It says the trend may be contributing to the declining birthrate in Western countries – which has been happening in the UK since 2010.

Searches for Madeleine McCann resumed on Thursday near to where the three-year-old disappeared from Praia da Luz, Portugal 18 years ago.
German and Portuguese investigators have until Friday to look for evidence relating to her disappearance but there has been no obvious sign of any major discovery so far.
Officers are scouring a 21 sq km (8.1 sq miles) site near where she went missing and where the German investigators' prime suspect, Christian Brückner, had been staying at the time.
The 48-year-old is serving a prison sentence in Germany for an unrelated rape case, however could be released as early as September.
