- South Korea 'on the brink' -

After largely bringing its outbreak under control, South Korea returns to tightening curbs to try to contain a new, growing cluster of cases.

"The situation is very grave and serious as we are on the brink of a nationwide pandemic," warns Jung Eun-kyeong, chief of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Rohingya in Myanmar's conflict-wracked Rakhine state express fears of an outbreak reaching their overcrowded camps, where nearly 130,000 live, after a spate of infections sends the state capital Sittwe into lockdown.

Police in Peru say at least 13 people suffocated in a crush during a raid on a nightclub in the capital Lima, where a party of around 120 people was being held despite a ban on such gatherings.
