Delta Air Lines lost $755 million in the fourth quarter, bringing its losses to nearly $12.4 billion in 2020, a year in which the airline industry was battered by a pandemic that crippled air travel.
“Our December quarter results capped the toughest year in Delta’s history,” Ed Bastian, Delta’s chief executive, said in a statement Tuesday morning. “While our challenges continue in 2021, I am optimistic this will be a year of recovery and a turning point that results in an even stronger Delta.”

The moves came just days after the arrest of over 50 pro-democracy activists, and sources have told Reuters that China is planning a further crackdown.

In Hong Kong, the first blocking of a website on the grounds of national security and a policy change on the approval of internet domains have triggered fresh concerns over freedom of access to information – as well as the city’s status as a regional telecommunications hub.
On January 14, Hong Kong Broadband Network (HKBN) admitted to blocking HKChronicles – a website formed in response to the 2019 pro-democracy protests that shared anti-government content and personal information on police officers – after users noticed it was unreachable last week. A spokesman for HKBN told Reuters that access was disabled on January 13 in compliance with the National Security Law (NSL), marking the first time authorities have censored a website under the law since it came into effect in June.
