The trial of 11 female Saudi activists resumed in Riyadh on Wednesday, in a case that has been criticized by rights groups and drawn international condemnation. Saudi Arabia has not yet made the charges public, but after the women's last hearings on March 13, Human Rights Watch reported that the charges appeared "almost entirely related to their human rights activities." Some of the women were charged with promoting women's rights and calling for the end of Saudi Arabia's restrictive male guardianship system, according to Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. The charges also include contact with international organizations, foreign media and other activists, the rights groups said. The women also face charges under article six of the kingdom's cybercrime law, according to rights groups, which carry a maximum penalty of five years in jail. Saudi women's rights activist is being tortured in 'palace of terror,' brother says Saudi women's rights activist is being tortured in 'palace of terror,' brother says One of the women, the prominent rights campaigner Loujain al-Hathloul, requested bail and extra time to respond to the charges, according to her brother Walid al-Hathloul, who told CNN that her charges were related to her rights activism, including contacting journalists, diplomats and other activists. Walid al-Hathloul said a judge is set to decide on whether to grant his sister's requests on Thursday afternoon. Saudi authorities did not respond to CNN's request for information about the proceedings Wednesday. Western diplomats and journalists were barred from the hearing, Reuters reported. ADVERTISING inRead invented by Teads Many of the women have been in jail since May 2018, weeks before the kingdom's notorious ban on female drivers was lifted. Hathloul was arrested in March of last year as she was driving down a highway in the United Arab Emirates, where she had been living. She was then sent to Saudi Arabia and detained. The 29-year-old was released days later, only to be arrested again a few weeks later in a sweep that targeted 10 women's right-to-drive activists. Several detainees were later released, but other women's rights defenders were detained in the weeks that followed the initial arrests. Another detained activist, Aziza al-Yousef, who is over 70, was one of the country's first activists campaigning for the right to drive and signed a petition in recent years calling for an end to the guardianship laws that grant men control over their female family members. Campaigner Aziza al-Yousef was part of the May 2018 arrest sweep and remains in prison. Campaigner Aziza al-Yousef was part of the May 2018 arrest sweep and remains in prison. Eman al-Nafjan, a third detainee, is a well-known blogger who drove in Riyadh in 2013 as part of a protest that attracted international attention. Also facing trial are Amal al-Harbi, Ruqayyah al-Mharib, Nouf Abdulaziz, Maya'a al-Zahrani, Shadan al-Anezi, Abir Namankani, Hatoon al-Fassi and another unidentified female activist. The women's cases were initially treated as treated as security-related. The activists swept up in May 2018 were first accused of "suspicious contact with foreign entities" and reportedly faced terror charges. According to members of Hathloul's family, she was initially scheduled to appear in a terror court in Riyadh. But on the eve of the first hearing, her case was moved to a criminal court. The women's arrests drew international condemnation, including at the United Nations Human Rights Council, where a statement signed by 36 countries named the activists and called for their release. It was the first collective rebuke of the kingdom at the forum. Story of disappeared Saudi power couple spotlights dissident crackdown Story of disappeared Saudi power couple spotlights dissident crackdown In January, Walid al-Hathloul detailed in a CNN opinion piece the abuse allegedly endured by his sister in prison. During a visit to the prison by her parents, she told them that she was regularly whipped, beaten, electrocuted and sexually harassed in a basement she called the "palace of terror." Saudi activists and Human Rights Watch have also alleged that she and other female detainees have been tortured and sexually harassed in prison. Saud al-Qahtani, a former adviser to the Crown Prince, was linked to the alleged torture. Saudi authorities did not respond to CNN's request for comment on the torture allegations. Riyadh previously denied allegations of torture in a statement to CNN following an initial Human Rights Watch report alleging the abuse in November. "The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's judiciary system does not condone, promote, or allow the use of torture. Anyone, whether male or female, being investigated is going through the standard judiciary process led by the public prosecution while being held for questioning, which does not in any way rely on torture, either physical, sexual, or psychological," a Saudi official told CNN in November.

Call it a late wedding present. Last year's royal knot-tying between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has delivered a much-needed boost to Brexit-addled London. The city has been named the best destination in the world in TripAdvisor's annual Traveler's Choice Awards, largely thanks to 2018's regal celebrations. London knocked protest-hit Paris off the top travel slot in the ranking determined by reviews and ratings over the past 12 months for hotels, restaurants and experiences. TripAdvisor says the outcome is down to the spotlight of the royal wedding.

"With the couple's new Royal baby due imminently, London may continue to reap the rewards of the Harry and Meghan effect into 2020," she added.

Such attractions saw a year-on-year increase of between 94% and 231%, the website said. Laura Citron, CEO of Visit London -- the capital's official visitor guide -- said the ranking were a "true validation of the incredible hard work of our tourism industry, ensuring our visitors have exceptional experiences every single day of the year."

Meanwhile, 2019 was the first year New York -- which has been a long-time favorite with travelers -- slipped out of TripAdvisor's top 10 to rank as the 13th best-rated destination in the world. Desiree Fish, TripAdvisor's Vice President of Global Communications, said the Travelers' Choice Awards "recognize major cities and islands that continue to deliver an outstanding experience and are beloved by our global community of travelers."

Boeing unveiled an overhaul Wednesday to a software system and the pilot training of its signature 737 MAX plane, marking its most direct attempt to fix an element of the plane's original design that investigators believe led to two recent crashes. At the company's plant in Renton, Washington, where the plane is assembled, Boeing pilots ran through scenarios on a flight simulator that was transmitted live into a conference room where regulators and some 200 pilots from client airlines were gathered, according to Mike Sinnett, Boeing's vice president for product strategy. The guests were able to request test simulations. "We're working with customers and regulators around the world to restore faith in our industry and also to reaffirm our commitment to safety and to earning the trust of the flying public," Sinnett said. "The rigor and thoroughness in the design and testing that went into the MAX gives us complete confidence that the changes we're making will address any of these accidents." Chao: 'Very questionable' that Boeing made 737 Max safety features optional Chao: 'Very questionable' that Boeing made 737 Max safety features optional The gathering came at a crisis moment for the iconic American company, now under criminal scrutiny by the Justice Department for its certification and marketing of the 737 Max plane. At back-to-back hearings in Washington on Wednesday, Trump administration officials were grilled about the decision to defer large parts of the 737's safety certification to Boeing. Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao said Wednesday that she found it "very questionable" that safety systems were not part of the standard package offered by Boeing on its 737 Max jets. "It is very questionable if these were safety oriented additions why they were not part of the required template of measures that should go into an airplane," she said in testimony before the Senate, where she was appearing to answer questions about her annual budget request. But Chao defended the decision of the Federal Aviation Administration not to ground Boeing's signature plane after the first of two fatal crashes. "The FAA is a very professional, fact-based organization, and they don't make decisions that are too hasty," she said. Aviation authorities have fingered the software as a leading factor in the Lion Air crash last October. Investigators have drawn similarities between the flight data from that crash and the Ethiopian Airlines crash earlier this month that killed 157 people. On Wednesday, a Boeing official resisted sweeping change to their overall processes. "If you look at the performance of the system, it would indicate that we are continuing to learn and continuing to get better and better over time. And so right now, I would be very careful about indicting any part of that process until we know more from the specifics of these accidents," the official told CNN. The official said the company has conducted a number of its own "thorough audits" since the Lion Air crash and found "nothing that concerns us." "Those reviews continue and I'm sure they will continue for some time but there's nothing that we found at this point," the official said. The official stopped short of saying that the update unveiled Wednesday indicated that the original software was inadequate. "That's a conclusion that can only be drawn by the investigative authorities. What we're saying is that we've found a way to make it more robust and we're making that change now," the official said. The software update will affect software known as the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System, or MCAS, which is designed to automatically command a plane down if it senses an imminent stall. The most significant change to the MCAS software in the update is the addition of data from a second Angle of Attack (AOA) sensor, which measures the horizontal tilt of the airplane. In its first iteration the software only drew data from one of AOA sensor. The Boeing official on Wednesday defended the original use of only one sensor as in line with 50-year industry practices. Investigators in Indonesia have said faulty data from that sensor caused the MCAS system to repeatedly push the Lion Air flight down towards the ocean, in a battle with the pilots who tried to right the plane. Boeing also said Wednesday it would make an alert that displays if the two AOA sensors are contradicting each other standard on the 737 MAX. It had been included only as an option in the original model. Sinnett called the alert, known as the AOA disagree flag, "supplemental information that is not required by any crew procedures or any alerts to operate the airplane." The software has also been changed so that it does not repeat the downward pushing cycle in the event of an abnormal AOA reading, and will no longer produce an angle that can not be counteracted manually by a pilot. Ethiopian Airlines is a symbol of national pride. Now a disaster has put it under scrutiny Ethiopian Airlines is a symbol of national pride. Now a disaster has put it under scrutiny The plane's manual, which had not originally included an explanation of the MCAS software, was revised after the Lion Air flight, and supplemental information will be added to overview the update to the system, Sinnett said. Software designers at Boeing developed the update to the system after extensive engineering analysis, design, and verification, another Boeing official said, and first submitted a proposed certification plan for the update to the FAA on January 21. Boeing is expected to submit the final compliance documents for the update to regulators later this week. Boeing pilots worked with the company's software design team throughout months of production to incorporate multiple layers of protection in the event of sensor errors or other erroneous inputs. Boeing conducted an engineering verification flight February and a certification flight with the FAA on March 12, two days after the Ethiopian Airlines crash. Boeing only rolled out the software update now, after the second crash, because "we wanted to get it right," the first Boeing official said Wednesday. Software updates to the plane will take about an hour, and pilots will have to have to complete a new, more rigorous layer of computer-based training before being allowed to fly the plane, Sinnett said. The original training on the 737 MAX consisted of a short, self-administered online course that made no mention of the new MCAS system and how to disable it in a situation like what the pilots on the Lion Air, and likely the Ethiopian Airlines flights, faced — prompting outrage from some pilots unions after the crashes. The decision to return hundreds of 737 MAX planes currently grounded around the world in the wake of the Ethiopian Airlines crash earlier this month will be at the discretion of each country's aviation regulators. "Boeing is clearly committed to making the 737 MAX 8 safe again," said David Soucie, a former FAA safety inspector and a CNN analyst. "While it doesn't answer all the questions about why it wasn't addressed before it was put into service," he said of the MCAS software, "I believe the new safeguards built into the upgraded software combined with additional training will provide enough assurance to regulators to return the fleet to service."
