Asian Games organisers offered "deepest apologies" on Saturday for playing the North Korean national anthem for the South Korean men's hockey team. South Korean officials were left angered by the latest mishap to hit the Nagoya-Aichi Games, which officially opened after a troubled build-up.

Actor Rhea Chakraborty said she has been missing herself as she announced a break from social media to "reconnect with what feels real".
Chakraborty shared a post on her Instagram handle on Tuesday and said online noise feels heavy.
