Authorities in India have removed hundreds of tonnes of toxic waste from a chemical factory that witnessed one of the world's deadliest gas leaks 40 years ago. Thousands of people died in the central city of Bhopal in December 1984 after breathing a poisonous gas leaked from the factory.

Indian authorities said on Thursday (January 2) they had completed moving toxic waste from the site of the 1984 Bhopal gas leak disaster, which killed more than 5,000 people, to a disposal facility where it will take three to nine months to incinerate.
