The localizer antenna facility, essential for guiding aircraft landings near the runway at Muan International Airport in Muan-gun, South Jeolla Province, South Korea, is damaged after a collision with Jeju Air Flight 7C2216 on December 29, 2024. Multiple international aviation experts point out that, unlike the standard design, where such facilities are placed at runway level or elevated on steel towers, the facility at Muan International Airport is secured with thick concrete on a 2-3 meter-high mound of soil. This unconventional design is highlighted as a potential key factor contributing to the tragedy. Jeju Air Flight 7C2216, a Boeing 737-800 carrying 181 people, skids off the runway and collides with a wall, triggering a devastating explosion. Only two crew members seated near the rear emergency exit survive. With 179 confirmed fatalities, this tragedy becomes the deadliest domestic passenger plane crash in South Korean history. Muan International Airport is located approximately 300 km southwest of central Seoul. (Photo by Chris Jung/NurPhoto via Getty Images)

FILE - In this April 9, 2009 file photo, Swedish wolves at Skansen Zoo, in Stockholm. Sweden says its limited hunt of wolves is legal and claims the European Commission has misunderstood regulations surrounding killings of the canine mammal. Environment Minister Andreas Carlgren says this season's hunt quota of 20 wolves does not contravene EU directives protecting endangered species. Carlgren said Monday, March 28, 2011, that Sweden wants to strengthen the genetic stock of its wolves by importing animals from neighboring countries and that the restricted hunt is part of plans to increase acceptance of the predator among Swedes.
