A US citizen detained in North Korea says he stole military secrets to aid South Korea, during a press conference organised by Pyongyang.

Kim Dong Chul, 62, made the apparent confession on Friday, apologising for spying and bowing to reporters.
Mr Kim has previously told journalists he is a naturalised US citizen, born in South Korea, and that he was arrested in October for "espionage".
Forced public confessions by foreign prisoners are common in North Korea.
Mr Kim said that he was first approached by South Korean intelligence officers in 2011 to engage in paid espionage, North Korean news agency KCNA said.
He was arrested while receiving a USB stick containing military and nuclear secrets from a source, KCNA said.
According to Chinese state news agency Xinhua, Mr Kim said he was first introduced to South Korean spies by US intelligence officers.
"You could say that my anti-North Korean behaviour was also instigated by the United States," he was quoted as saying.
South Korea's National Intelligence Service told AP news agency Mr Kim's case was not related to the organisation, without providing further details.
In January, Mr Kim said in an interview with CNN in the presence of North Korean guards, that he made frequent trips to the North Korean special economic zone of Rason, where he was caught.
He said he had not worked for the US during any of his spying activities and that he used to live in Fairfax, Virginia.
His interview came weeks after North Korea jailed US student Otto Frederick Warmbier for attempting to steal a propaganda sign.
The US has previously accused North Korea of using its citizens as pawns in a diplomatic game. Pyongyang denies the accusations.

A Â£33m relief road using the first new river crossing in Wakefield for more than 100 years has opened.

The Wakefield Eastern Relief Road stretches for 4.6 miles (7.5km) between the A642 and A638 and crosses the River Calder.
The road could help to reduce congestion and pollution within the city, Wakefield Council said.
A development of 2,500 homes east of the city centre is planned to be built around the new road.

Councillor Peter Box, leader of Wakefield Council, said: "It is one of the biggest and most ambitious projects that this district has seen for decades."
Work on the road started in April 2015.


Celtic survived a late red card and a Stirling University rally to take the three points on their big Scottish Women's Premier League day at Parkhead.

With the game hosted at Celtic Park, goals from Natalie Ross and Jaclyn Poucal edged the home side to a 2-1 win despite Ruesha Littlejohn's dismissal.
That sets them up for a top of the table clash next with SWPL leaders Hibernian, who thumped Hamilton 6-0.
Glasgow City beat Aberdeen 3-0, while Spartans were 3-1 winners over Rangers.
Hibs lead the table by two points with three wins out of three so far, scoring 16 goals and conceding just two.
City, Celtic and Spartans are all level on seven points apiece, with Rangers and Hamilton still to get off the mark this season.
As a club, Celtic are determined to add the women's top-flight title to their growing list of silverware, and with the game staged at Parkhead it was a chance to showcase the women's side to a larger audience.
Initially, they struggled to impose themselves against a well-organised Stirling side, until Heather Richards took charge of proceedings.
The 23-year-old tormented Stirling down the right flank - Jen Godfrey directed one Richards cross towards her own goal which goalkeeper Chloe Logan saved, before Sarah Ewens put the ball just wide from another.
The visitors could not deal with Richards' threat and Ross made no mistake after 38 minutes when she placed the winger's cut-back from the right into the far corner.
Celtic had been largely untroubled, but a Poucal mistake early in the second half allowed Rachel Donaldson to race towards goal. She had options to her right but elected to shoot, sending her effort over the bar.
Two minutes later, Poucal showed her worth at the other end of the pitch, heading in Richards' corner from close range on 51 minutes.
The hosts had chances to stretch their lead even further. Ewens struggled to put any power behind her shot from inside the box, then Littlejohn curled the ball off the post after Lauren Gallon's last-ditch challenge had denied Jamie-Lee Napier.
Richards shot wide from distance before substitute Kirsty Howat forced a great save from Logan; the goalkeeper at full stretch to tip the shot over the bar.
With nine minutes to go the game was turned on its head when Littlejohn was sent off for a rash challenge just minutes after being warned by the referee for a similar tackle.
That gave Stirling the initiative. A poor pass-back from Poucal allowed Nicola Pullar to get free on the left, and her shot bounced off the top of the crossbar.
Stirling kept coming and pulled one back when Michelle Russell bundled in from close range after Celtic failed to clear their lines.
With four minutes added on it made for a nervy finish, but Stirling could not get another sight of goal.
Celtic head coach David Haley paid tribute to Richards, who is in her second spell at the club after a stint with Hibs.
"She was excellent," Haley told BBC Scotland. "She's created a good few opportunities for us, not just the goals but other opportunities as well.
"It was just tiredness through the size of the pitch and playing the wing-back position that we changed it.
"I thought the second half was by far our better half. In the first half for whatever reason we came out slow and tentative, we showed Stirling a lot of respect.
"But second half, fair play to them they've moved the ball a lot quicker and I thought we thoroughly deserved our victory even though it was quite tight in the end."


Mitchell Mann hopes his impressive 6-3 win over world number 13 Kyren Wilson in the UK Championship first round will help him relax into the tournament.

The world number 115 from Birmingham had won just twice in 11 matches this season before seeing off one of game's rising stars at the York Barbican.
"I feel like I just fell over the line in the end," said Mann, 24.
"When you are not winning many matches on the tour it makes you doubt yourself when you see the winning line."
Mann, who reached the World Championship for the first time in his career in April, will play world number 46 Sam Baird in round two.
"It's a massive relief to get through because my results this season have not been where I want them," added Mann. "I feel like as though I can freeroll in the next round."

Bath reached their first Premiership final since 2004 with a comfortable play-off semi-final win over Leicester.

A brace from Matt Banahan and a Kyle Eastmond try put the hosts in control, but they ended the first half with 13 men as Tom Youngs replied.
Second-half tries from Peter Stringer, George Ford and Anthony Watson sealed Bath's passage to Twickenham as Banahan completed his hat-trick late on.
The Blue, Black and Whites will face Saracens in the final on 30 May.
Leicester, the 10-time Premiership champions who reached nine consecutive finals between 2005 and 2013, dominated territory in the first half at the Rec but were undone by Bath's decisive attacking.
The hosts took the lead in the second minute through Banahan but Freddie Burns missed two penalties as he looked to reply for the Tigers; skewing his first attempt wide and then seeing his second come back off the post.
The fly-half's third strike from the tee was successful but Bath hit back immediately through Banahan's second try.
Bath scored for a third time when Semesa Rokoduguni brushed past Vereniki Goneva and chipped ahead for Eastmond to score.
With Tigers camped on the Bath line, Anthony Watson and Leroy Houston were sin-binned in quick succession for infringements, and Leicester brought themselves back into the game on the stroke of half-time through Tom Youngs.
However, their hopes of a comeback faltered as Burns and Tommy Bell missed second-half penalties either side of a lengthy stoppage in play which saw Tigers full-back Niall Morris stretchered off with an ankle injury.
Bath continued to soak up pressure and then increased their lead as Francois Louw broke through and set up veteran scrum-half Stringer, playing his last home game before his summer move to Sale.
Ford, who put in a near-perfect kicking display, Banahan and Watson then ran in simple tries late on to give Bath an emphatic victory.
Bath head coach Mike Ford:
"We were so clinical in the first half - the attack was outstanding.
"The boys kept their composure and once the bench came on and we got that fourth try, the game was over.
"I thought Leicester played better than the scoreboard suggested.
"We would be stupid to change unless it is absolutely a monsoon next Saturday. Saracens will know what's coming - they are an excellent kick-chase side.
"My job with this young side is to keep them pressure-free, make them have fun and enjoy it and go out and do what they do."
Leicester director of ruby Richard Cockerill:
"I have no complaints about the result.
"We controlled the game for large parts, we just didn't have enough firepower to get over the line.
"The penalty count was horrendous against Bath, but every time we got within five or six metres of the line, the referee was quite lenient on offences.
"To have only two guys binned and not be under the sticks for a penalty try was frustrating, but that's life.
"Once they got away from us, they were away and we had no way of clawing that back."

Hull City fans are planning a protest against the "ill-considered ideas" of the newly-promoted club's owners on the first day of the Premier League season.

The Tigers, who host Leicester on 13 August, have been without a manager since Steve Bruce resigned after a fall out with vice-chairman Ehab Allam.
City are yet to make a summer signing.
"It's clear the desire to protest against the way the club is being run is stronger than ever before," said the Hull City Supporters' Trust (HCST).
Owner Assem Allam, who took charge of the Tigers in December 2010, put the club up for sale in 2014 after the Football Association turned down his request to change their name to Hull Tigers.
The East Yorkshire club opened talks with an interested party in May, but put takeover talks on hold until September to "ensure stability during the transfer window".
However, City have a threadbare squad after failing to sign any new players and a number of senior players were injured.
The club, who were promoted after winning the Championship play-off final in May, had an approach to speak to Wales boss Chris Coleman about replacing Bruce turned down by the Football Association of Wales (FAW) on Monday.
"No communication, no manager, no engagement, no signings, no identity, no concessions, no honesty. The list goes on," added the HCST statement.
"The owners are digging their heels in more than ever, discarding people at an alarming rate and pushing ahead with all of their ill-considered ideas with their usual arrogance and complete lack of interest in the damaging effects they will have.
"We will be organising and coordinating protests over the coming weeks."
A section of supporters held up red cards during April's home win against Brentford and the Trust said it would expand on that idea as part of the protest.
"Cards alone are not enough though, so we'll be organising additional protests, but we'd like to keep some of this as a surprise for maximum impact," it added.


Republican front-runner Donald Trump has said he would easily win the Republican nomination if John Kasich drops out of the contest.

He said the Ohio governor should not stay in the contest because he cannot collect enough delegates to win.
His comments came just ahead of Tuesday's Wisconsin vote which could reshape the Republican race.
"If I didn't have Kasich, I automatically win," Mr Trump said at a rally in Wisconsin.
If Mr Trump loses the primary contest on Tuesday, as the polls suggest, it is far less likely he will have the all-important 1,237 delegates needed to secure the nomination.
Delegates represent their states at the party's convention and are accumulated by the votes in each state.
Currently, Mr Trump has 735 delegates, Texas Senator Ted Cruz 461 and Ohio Governor Mr Kasich 143.
If no-one hits 1,237 after all 50 states have voted, the Republican convention in July is contested, meaning the delegates vote for a nominee, and Mr Trump, who is unpopular among sections of the party, could lose the nomination.
The New York businessman has had a very difficult seven days, sparking outcry over comments he made about abortion, standing by his campaign manager after he was charged with assaulting a reporter and raising eyebrows with remarks about US foreign policy.
"Was this my best week? I guess not," Mr Trump told "Fox News Sunday".

A loss in Wisconsin, which is the kind of state he has done well in up to now, then questions will be raised about whether his campaign is running out of steam.
He met the Republican National Committee (RNC) in Washington to review delegate and party rules, days after breaking a promise made to them that he would back the eventual nominee.
In response to Mr Trump's comments that Mr Kasich should follow former Florida Governor Jeb Bush and Florida Senator Marco Rubio and quit the race, the Ohio Governor said he will stay because no-one will get the required number to win outright.
"Since he thinks it's such a good idea, we look forward to Trump dropping out before the convention," Kasich spokesman Chris Schrimpf said.
Mr Kasich has recognised that he will not be able to gain enough delegates before the convention.
Reince Priebus, president of the RNC, has said the nominee will be someone who is running, but acknowledged that a brokered convention is a possibility.
The Democrats are campaigning ahead of Wisconsin's primary as well, where Hillary Clinton is hoping to hold off a resurgent Bernie Sanders.


People are warned about a rise in disruption on the roads of south Wales as world leaders and delegates gather at the Nato summit in Newport.

Roads between the Celtic Manor Resort and Cardiff are most likely to be hit, but there are no plans to close the M4.
Traffic has already been restricted in Cardiff city centre, where some roads have now been closed due to the summit.
Cardiff Airport said flights would not be affected, but passengers are urged to allow extra time for road journeys.
People have also been asked to use public transport wherever possible.
Ch Supt Alun Thomas from South Wales Police, the Silver Commander responsible for the operational delivery of the Nato summit, said they were looking after an "unprecedented international global event".
He said: "It is fair to say that this is totally unprecedented and something that the UK has never managed before so whilst it's challenging for us locally in Wales, what an opportunity, what a fantastic chance for us to display Wales across the globe and show the rest of our partners and colleagues that we are capable of delivering this on behalf of Wales."
Road closures in Newport have been limited to the area around the Celtic Manor Resort on the outskirts of the city, which is hosting the summit on Thursday and Friday.
Official government transport advice for the duration of the summit says there is no intention to close the M4 at any point, and that "significant disruption" should be limited to particular pinch-points when delegations arrive and depart from the Celtic Manor.
Thursday evening and Friday morning rush-hours have been identified as the times most likely to be affected by congestion.
Newport Bus said its services would be running to a Saturday timetable on Thursday and Friday.
In Cardiff city centre, the installation of security fencing has already resulted in lane closures around Cardiff Castle and the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, which are hosting events for delegates during the summit, prompting an outcry from taxi drivers about "absolute chaos".
A key route through the city centre will be closed completely from 20:30 BST on Wednesday in advance of a working dinner for Nato delegates at Cardiff Castle on Thursday evening.
The roads to be closed are:
The roads are likely to reopen in the early hours of Friday morning, although the timing is yet to be confirmed.
Ramesh Patel, Cardiff council cabinet member for transport and strategic planning, said: "Residents are advised to consider using public transport, or make use of the park and ride facilities at Leckwith or Pentwyn.
"If you are travelling by car into the city centre, we advise that you allow extra time for your journey and use the diversion route signposted."
Cardiff Airport said it has spent up to a year gearing up for one of the biggest ever events of its kind on UK soil.
An extra 100 staff from a range of agencies are on duty running a temporary terminal built specifically to handle the Nato traffic.
Aviation enthusiasts hoping to catch a glimpse of a world leader's plane are being provided with a private parking area at the Porthkerry caravan site.
Arriva Trains Wales is adding extra capacity and services between Cardiff and Newport during the Nato summit, as well as more staff at stations to deal with the 25,000 extra passengers expected.
Customer services director Lynne Milligan said Arriva Trains Wales had been working with Network Rail and British Transport Police to see what could be done on Thursday and Friday.
There will be an extra train an hour running in both directions between Cardiff and Newport to meet the expected extra demand.
"We've put the 25,000 extra people expected into the capacity for those couple of days, and we will have an hourly shuttle in addition to the normal train service between Newport and Cardiff," she said.
"With the government recommending people avoid the roads because of delays - and I think everyone will expect delays - it feels quite a good way to support that by putting these extra hourly trains in each direction."
But First Great Western, which runs the Swansea to London Paddington service, said there were no plan to run extra train or increase capacity.
Patients and visitors to hospital sites in Cardiff are being advised to allow extra time for their journeys during the Nato summit.
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has put plans in place to minimise the impact on local services and aims to maintain as normal a service as possible.
Essential services such as urgent cancers, outpatient diagnostics and elective services will continue as normal at University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, while the minor injuries unit at Barry Hospital will shut until Monday to help provide emergency medicine staff in the city centre to support police and ambulance staff.
Services at University Hospital Llandough will continue as normal.
Abigail Harris, the health board's director of planning, said: "There has been extensive multi-agency planning to make sure our services are prepared for any increased demand during the week.
"We are planning to provide as normal a service as possible but would advise those coming to our sites, particularly on Thursday or Friday, to allow extra travelling time and check the latest travel news."


Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain has strongly denied allegations of sexual harassment against him, but said a settlement was reached in the 1990s.

He told Fox News he had "never" committed harassment, before clarifying his position in a later interview.
Politico reported that two female employees complained of sexually suggestive behaviour from Mr Cain.
It said the National Restaurant Association paid them to leave the group and not speak on the allegations.
Mr Cain told Fox News: "I've never sexually harassed anyone."
"And yes, I was falsely accused while I was at the National Restaurant Association, and I say falsely because it turned out after the investigation to be baseless."
However, his recollection of whether or not settlements were made changed over the course of Monday.
During the Fox interview, Mr Cain said he had no idea whether the trade association provided financial settlements to the women who complained.
"If there was a settlement, it was handled by some of the other officers at the restaurant association," he said.
Later, he told PBS: "I was aware an agreement was reached. The word 'settlement' versus the word 'agreement' you know, I'm not sure what they called it."
Mr Cain has additional media interviews scheduled on Tuesday.
On Monday, the National Restaurant Association said it did not comment on personnel matters, while Mr Cain's campaign has denied the reports since the story emerged on Sunday evening.
"Let me tell you that Herman Cain has never sexually harassed anybody, period. End of story," Mr Cain's chief of staff, Mark Block, told MSNBC on Monday morning.
Mr Block said top officials at the National Restaurant Association thought Mr Cain was "a man of total integrity".
A statement on Sunday attacked the story.
"Dredging up thinly sourced allegations stemming from Mr Cain's tenure as the chief executive officer at the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s, political trade press are now casting aspersions on his character and spreading rumours that never stood up to the facts," spokesman JD Gordon said.
The Cain campaign also responded on Twitter. "From Team HC: Sadly we've seen this movie played out before. Mr. Cain and all Americans deserve better," @THEHermanCain tweeted.
Mr Cain, who was CEO of Godfather's Pizza before heading the restaurant lobby group, has taken a lead in opinion polls of Republican voters in recent weeks, despite never having held public office.
Politico said it had confirmed the identities of two former female employees of the National Restaurant Association who made sexual harassment complaints to colleagues and association officials about Mr Cain, but was not publishing their names out of concerns for their privacy.
The website said the allegations included conversations "filled with innuendo or personal questions of a sexually suggestive nature" at association events.
Mr Cain also allegedly gave "descriptions of physical gestures that were not overtly sexual, but that made women who experienced them or witnessed them uncomfortable".
Politico said its report was based on multiple sources and documentation, including the recollections of close associates of the two women.
When asked by Politico on Sunday about the allegations, Mr Cain said he has "had thousands of people working for me" at different businesses over the years and could not comment "until I see some facts or some concrete evidence".
A poll on Saturday placed Mr Cain ahead of his main rival, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, in Iowa, which holds the first of a series of state-by-state contests to choose the Republican candidate.
The hopefuls are vying to become the party's nominee to challenge President Barack Obama for the White House in November 2012.


Google plans to expand a ride-sharing service in San Francisco using its Waze app, setting up a potential showdown with market leaders Uber and Lyft.

Waze gives traffic conditions and driving directions in real time.
Since May Google has been running a pilot carpooling service, which uses Waze to connect drivers and passengers near its California headquarters.
But by the end of the year anyone in the Bay Area will be able to request a ride, using the Waze app.
If successful, Google may look to expand the service to other cities.
The move may undercut its rivals, as Waze charges cheaper rates.
Under the pilot program, Waze charged riders a maximum of 54 cents a mile with no booking fee.
Same, same but different?
Waze aims to connect drivers and potential passengers heading in the same direction and the charges to passengers cover the cost of fuel and maintenance.
It is a different model from Uber and Lyft, where drivers use their own cars to offer rides for profit.
Over the last few years Google and Uber have started to compete in the fast-growing transport business.
Both firms are developing driverless cars, with Uber set to launch road tests in Pittsburgh soon.
Uber has also begun developing its own mapping software.
Both Uber and Lyft are estimated to be worth billions of dollars but have yet to turn a profit.


BHP Billiton and Vale are to pay a further 1bn reais (£171m; $260m) for the mining disaster that killed 11 people in Brazil earlier this month.

The mining giants had already been ordered to pay 250m reais after a dam burst at a mine run by Samarco, a firm they jointly own.
Twelve people remain missing following the incident in southern Brazil that set off a deadly mudslide.
The fine will provide aid to the victims and fund environmental repairs.
The head of Brazil's environmental agency, Ibama, has described it as the worst mining accident in the country's history.
Prosecutors in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais said the preliminary payment would cover the clean-up costs and compensation.
"We know that the amount of damages could be much greater, but the agreement establishes a firm legal guarantee," prosecutor Carlos Eduardo Ferreira Pinto said in the statement.
Brazilian miner Vale's chief financial officer Luciano Siani earlier refused to speculate on the level the clean-up costs and penalties could ultimately reach.
State prosecutors are also considering whether to pursue criminal charges.
On Tuesday, BHP Billiton chief executive Andrew Mackenzie expressed his "sadness and concern" for the community affected by the dam burst.
He added: "Our priority remains the welfare of the workforce and the local community and I am encouraged by the support I saw Samarco providing.
"Samarco continues to provide food, water and emergency supplies to local communities.
"They also continue to work with the authorities' efforts to supply clean water to the communities further downstream along the Doce River."
More than 600 people who lost their homes in the accident have been placed in hotel or B&B accommodation, he added.
Meanwhile, Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff said the country was "committed to blame those who are responsible".
The cause of the dam breach has not yet been determined, but one of the structures was being extended as part of an expansion project at the time.
Mr Siani said he did not yet know when the mine would reopen.
The incident is expected to affect Vale's production next year, and the firm has said it will give a new forecast for 2016 production in December.
Mining is Brazil's third-largest industry.


Aldershot Town have signed winger Jonny Giles on loan from Oxford United for the rest of the season.

The 22-year-old had a spell on loan in the National League at Southport last term, making four appearances.
"I'm glad I had that experience with Southport, so I know what to expect," he told the club website.
Giles is the second player signed by Aldershot under the Boost The Budget scheme which allows fans to contribute to the first-team budget.

Children as young as eight in north Wales have been sending indecent images to each other, a victim support centre has claimed.

Karen Reed, of the area's Victim Help Centre, warned "sexting" via apps such as Snapchat on mobile phones was a growing problem.
She said the situation could get worse during the summer holidays.
North Wales' Police and Crime Commissioner said it was "worrying phenomenon" that must be tackled.
In April, NSPCC Cymru reported a rise in under-18s being reported to North Wales Police for distributing indecent images of children.
The charity said two children were reported to the force in 2013, but this had risen to 28 in 2015.
Ms Reed said: "We've has some cases of children who have experienced sexting who are under 10 years old, as young as eight or nine years old. It doesn't seem to discriminate between boys or girls really.
"Young people have access to mobile phones from a very young age, and especially now, a time like summer holidays when children are out and about playing with their friends.
"The children will send photographs of various pictures to each other. They'll be pornographic, explicit photographs - sometimes of themselves, sometimes they're sharing photographs that have maybe been passed on to them from various sources.
"I think it would be very difficult to say that there are many children now who haven't been touched by this type of crime. That's my experience of it here anyway."
Mr Jones said it was important to educate children and their parents of the dangers of sending such images.
"Technological advances have brought great benefits to society but at the same time they have increased risk and the scope for wrongdoing, so we must be vigilant," he said.
The centre, which is run by staff and volunteers, gives parents advice about how to keep their children safe when using technology. It can be contacted free on 0300 3030159.


The Democratic Republic of the Congo has been urged to investigate at least 421 bodies found in an unmarked burial ground in the capital, Kinshasa.

A foul smell led residents to the site in March.
The government says all the bodies were buried in a single night and include stillborn babies and unclaimed bodies.
But Human Rights Watch says they must check to see if any of the people killed during anti-government protests in January have been buried there.
Dozens of demonstrators died in protests over a proposed electoral law change which would have required a national census to be held before the presidential election could take place.
The US-based watchdog Human Rights Watch (HWR) has said that bodies went missing during the protests and also during government crackdowns on criminal gangs in the capital last year and in 2013.
Human rights workers first became aware of the burial site after residents of Maluku in Kinshasa reported a terrible smell near the local cemetery more than two weeks ago.
A woman working in the field then discovered a limb sticking out of the ground.
The DR Congo government has said that the bodies were all buried in individual graves on 19 March.
A spokesman said on Monday that there would be no exhumations of the bodies.


A man was repeatedly punched and kicked in the head and face in a New Year's Day attack in East Renfrewshire.

Police said the 38-year-old was walking along Arthurlie Street, Barrhead, at about 12:00 when he was approached from behind and pulled to the ground.
A local resident contacted emergency services and the injured man was taken to the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley.
His condition has been described as stable.
The suspect was described as being about 40 years old, 6ft 2in and was wearing a hooded jacket.
Det Con Jacqui Carroll: "This was a particularly vicious attack and as yet we have still to establish a motive.
"We are currently viewing CCTV in the area and I'd like to speak to anyone who was in the vicinity of Arthurlie Street at midday on 1 January who either witnessed this attack or perhaps saw the culprit running off."


The Prince of Wales and First Minister Carwyn Jones have joined up to 1,000 people in Flanders, Belgium, for the Welsh centenary memorial of the Battle of Passchendaele.

It was one of the bloodiest events of World War One - with 4,000 Welsh soldiers killed or injured on the first day, 31 July 1917.
Among them was Welsh poet Hedd Wyn.
The 38th (Welsh) Division played a central role in the battle, capturing key positions on the ridge at Pilckem.
By the end of the battle - also known as the Third Battle of Ypres - half a million men had died from both sides, with Allied forces having advanced just five miles (8km) in three months.
Events in and around what became known as the Ypres Salient started at dawn on Monday, as a memorial ceremony marking "Zero hour" was held at the Welsh memorial in Langemark.
It was where men from the 38th Division - which was made up entirely of Welsh soldiers - went over the top, with orders to capture Pilckem Ridge, the high ground held by heavily reinforced German troops.
During that assault, three Welsh Victoria Crosses were won.
But by 11:00, Hedd Wyn had died at a dressing station at Hagebos, without knowing he had won the highest prize at that year's National Eisteddfod - the chair.
A ceremony to remember him, and the Irish poet Francis Ledwidge, who was killed on the same day, was held at Artillery Wood Cemetery in Langemark on Monday morning.
It was followed by a UK ceremony at the Tyne Cot Cemetery near Passchendaele itself, the largest Commonwealth war grave in the world.
Prince Charles, Prince William and Prime Minister Theresa May were among those at that ceremony to pay tribute to those who died.
Prince Charles later joined the service to remember the Welsh fallen, giving a reading in English and Welsh, before laying a wreath.
Wales football manager Chris Coleman also addressed the congregation.
Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns, and the leaders of all the Welsh political parties, as well as descendants of those who were killed, also attended the service.
The speeches and readings were delivered in front of the 9ft (2.7m) dragon sculpture, which honours the Welsh men who fought in the conflict.
Mr Jones said: “It is a great privilege to be back in Langemark for this important occasion.
“It has been three years since the memorial was unveiled and it offers us a fitting place to pay tribute and reflect on the sacrifices of all those who took part in the Third Battle of Ypres 100 years ago.
“In this peaceful spot today, it is hard to imagine the horrors of war faced by our soldiers and the agonising wait of families back home who might not know the fate of loved ones for many months.”
A new memorial to the fallen Welsh soldiers was blessed at the end of the service. Seven stones show the cap badges of five Welsh Regiments and two Welsh Divisions involved in the battle.
The day ended with performances from the choir, Cor Rygbi Gogledd Cymru, and Welsh singer Rhys Meirion at the Last Post ceremony at the Menin Gate in Ypres.
The gate records the names of another 54,395 missing and dead in the conflict who were never found.
It comes after the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended a service on Sunday evening, accompanied by the band of the Welsh Guards.
“When you see these 54,000 names that are carved into the wall, you realise that they couldn’t find them. It’s amazing,” said Welsh tenor Meirion.
“It is a stadium full when you think about it. It puts things in perspective and it is very difficult.”


Barack Obama has tended to be reticent about race, and left others to attach racial meaning to his presidency.

His public comments on racist atrocities, like Charleston, and racial controversies, like Ferguson, have generally been measured and controlled, as if he is trying to keep a lid on his feelings.
The steady-state emotion that has been a hallmark of his presidency - his cool "no drama Obama" approach - extends also to America's racial dilemma. His gag at this year's White House correspondent's dinner was that he needed to outsource his demonstrative side to an "anger translator", played by the black comedian Keegan-Michael Key.
Key and comedy partner Jordan Peele had done the same comedy bit - a president who needs an angry proxy - since Obama's first term.
So his comments on a podcast about the legacy of slavery and segregation are noteworthy for their candour and bluntness.
But it is also the use of language that most Americans would go out of their way to avoid. "Racism, we are not cured of it. And it's not just a matter of it not being polite to say nigger in public," Obama commented in an interview for the podcast, WTF with Marc Maron.
A president who weighs every sentence, sometimes in a ponderously professorial way, has used a provocative word that he knows will have an electrifying effect on the debate.
It shows that, as he approaches the end of his presidency, he's speaking not only with more frankness but also with more frustration, perhaps from his own inability to change things.
After all, the notion that his presidency would usher in a post-racial society - a hope articulated by others rather than Obama himself - now looks laughable.
Obama has never wanted his presidency to be defined by his skin colour. Determined not to be typecast, he has been at pains to avoid coming across as resentful or angry.
David Remnick, the editor of the New Yorker, a biographer of the president and a journalist who has interviewed him at length, referred last week to a telling moment.
"After one interview in the Oval Office, [Obama] admitted to me that he was hesitant to answer some of my questions about race more fully or with less caution, for just as a stray word from him about, say, monetary policy could affect the financial markets, so, too, could a harsh or intemperate word about race affect the political temper of the country."
Throughout his presidency, speeches devoted solely to the question of race have been rare. So, too, comments in which he has brought his own experience of racism to bear.
His response in 2012 to the death of Trayvon Martin, the unarmed black teenager shot dead in by a neighbourhood watch coordinator George Zimmerman, was unusually candid and personal.
"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon," he said. But he did not elucidate the issue further.
As is often the case on matters concerning race, he delivered a fragmentary thought rather than the kind of rounded argument for which he is known.
Even when Obama delivered his famed race speech in Philadelphia during the 2008 election, he emphasised his white heritage as much as his black - the fact that his mother came from Kansas as well as his father coming from Kenya. He seemed almost to be de-emphasising his blackness.
He adopted the same approach on the night that he accepted the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, which, by a fluke of scheduling and quantum leap of history, coincided with the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech.
That night he made only an oblique reference to "a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that 'We Shall Overcome.'"
In recent months, however, Obama has been noticeably less detached on the question of race.
In March, on the 50th anniversary in Selma, Alabama, he delivered his most complete speech on race to date, where he described one of the most climactic showdowns of the civil rights era as "not a clash of armies, but a clash of wills; a contest to determine the true meaning of America".
Coming in the aftermath of the racial disturbances in Ferguson, he also drew a line between the past and the present.
It was wrong to argue that nothing had changed in the fifty years since black protesters were so mercilessly beaten by the police, he said. But also observed that "a more common mistake is to suggest that Ferguson is an isolated incident; that racism is banished; that the work that drew men and women to Selma is now complete".
First Lady Michelle Obama also delivered an impassioned commencement address at Tuskegee University in Alabama, an institution long associated with the struggle for black equality.
Touching on Ferguson and Baltimore, and also the racial slights that she and her husband endured, she noted, "the road ahead is not going to be easy".
"It never is, especially for folks like you and me. Because while we've come so far, the truth is those age-old problems are stubborn, and they haven't fully gone away."
Some wondered whether she was playing the role of the president's anger translator, though there has also been the feeling that she identifies more closely with black history than her husband, because she is a descendant of slaves who grew up in Chicago, rather than Hawaii and Indonesia.
Though Obama is doubtless speaking with more passion, it could hardly be argued that he has cast caution aside.
His comments on the podcast, despite using such an explosive word, extend only a few sentences. In the aftermath of the Charleston shootings, when speaking from the White House, his strongest comments were reserved for gun control rather than race.
Noticeably, he has yet to deliver a nationwide address on race akin to John F Kennedy's famed televised address in June 1963 or Lyndon Johnson's remarkable speech before a joint session of Congress in the aftermath of Selma.
His speech in Selma earlier in the year was one of the most eloquent of his presidency. But anniversary speeches, delivered with the safe distance of history, are very different from a primetime Oval Office address to the nation delivered in the immediate aftermath of an atrocity like Charleston.
When historians study the president's response, doubtless they will focus on his use of the "n-word". But they might also be struck that Obama did not seize upon the worst racial atrocity of his presidency to deliver a primetime nationwide address from the Oval Office.
More so than an interview conducted with a comedian in a garage, it would have entered the historical annals. And also risen to the historical moment.
Perhaps his eulogy at the funeral of the Reverend Clementa Pinckney on Friday will present the opportunity to deliver the kind of speech for which many Americans have waited more than six years. There he will occupy the presidential bully pulpit, in the most literal sense of all.


A two-storey wildlife observatory at the home of one of only two known pairs of breeding ospreys in Wales has been officially opened.

The round wooden structure has been built at the Cors Dyfi nature reserve near Machynlleth, Powys, with help of nearly £1.4m worth of grants.
The first osprey chick in the Dyfi valley for 400 years hatched in 2011.
The site's breeding pair of Ospreys, Monty and Glesni, returned to their nesting ground from Africa in April.
The pair bred two chicks, Cerist and Clarach, last year.
They have bred again this spring and two eggs are expected to hatch next month.
Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust's Dyfi Osprey Project attracted 31,000 visitors last year.
The trust claims the new vantage point - which has three viewing levels - gives visitors the opportunity to experience the Dyfi ecosystem from a new perspective.
From the upper viewing level, 10m (33ft) above the bog below, the building provides a full 360 degree panoramic view of the Dyfi Valley with the Plynlimon Mountains and Snowdonia National Park beyond.
Project Manager, Emyr Evans said: "It takes forward our vision of enhancing people's relationship with nature and learning about the natural world around us.
"We are lucky to have so much richness and diversity of wildlife in our small part of mid Wales.
"From kites to ospreys, from dormice to otters and marsh violets to bog myrtle.
"The 360 Observatory takes wildlife watching and learning to a higher level, quite literally."


Zambia produced a remarkable second half performance to beat Iran 4-2 at the Fifa Under-20 World Cup in South Korea on Wednesday.

The African champions fought back from 2-0 down to win this Group C encounter played in the city of Jeju and book their place in the second round.
As the Zambians struggled to find their rhythm in the first half, Iran took full advantage and Reza Shakari's brace had their fans in dreamland.
But they were a team reborn when the second half got underway as they pinned the Iranians deep in their own territory.
Fashion Sakala reduced the arrears in the 53rd minute before Enock Mwepu equalised with a well taken shot five minutes later,
Further strikes from Emmanuel Banda and Patson Daka then sealed a stunning win for the African side.

Authorities in India have suspended the principal of a school where a student was allegedly assaulted by his classmates because he scored well in school and came from the Dalit community.

Fourteen other employees of the government-run school in the eastern state of Bihar have been moved out.
Police also detained two boys accused of repeatedly beating their classmate.
The boys, who are brothers, have been sent to a juvenile detention centre.
The role of three others is being investigated.
The case came to prominence when the 16-year-old victim wrote a blog post for the website of an Indian television station, describing his ordeal.
"You see, I am a Dalit and so doing well in the examinations or academics, which brings me praise at home, earns me humiliation and abuse in my classroom," the boy said in his letter to the NDTV network.
"You tell me, how should I cope and prepare?" he said, referring to his final school examinations due next year.
A video of one alleged assault on him also spread quickly on the internet.
Gujarat tension over assault of Dalits
India Dalits protest over attacks
Police said they took action after studying the video, taken by another boy and uploaded, which shows the  student being punched, kicked and slapped.
"He was being tortured for quite some time," Babban Baitha, a senior policeman told AFP news agency.
"We went through the video which was recorded at the behest of the attackers themselves, and sent them to remand," Mr Baitha said.
The video comes after protests erupted in July when four Dalit men, believed to be tannery workers, were publicly flogged in western Gujarat state for skinning a dead cow.
Many Hindus consider cows sacred and the slaughter of the animal is banned in several states.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has criticised recent attacks against India's low-caste Dalit community, saying  at a public rally that "my head hangs in shame" every time he hears of such an incident.


A replica of Edinburgh Castle will be a dramatic backdrop in Melbourne for a rare trip abroad by the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, organisers say.

The replica of the historic facade will include statues of Scottish heroes Robert the Bruce and William Wallace.
It will be shipped in pieces to Melbourne's Etihad stadium, next February.
Performers will enter the stadium by crossing the drawbridge, just as they do in Edinburgh.
"When people see it, they will be absolutely astounded," said Brigadier David Allfrey, the Tattoo's chief executive and producer.
Speaking at a news conference in Melbourne, Brig Allfrey said the 12-13 February tour will be only the fourth time the Tattoo has travelled away from home in its 66-year history.
Shipping over and assembling the replica of the historic fortress, which has dominated Edinburgh's skyline for centuries, is "a huge job", he said.
It will be so authentic that "people will be able to go up and touch it and wonder if it's made of stone".
Its size is matched by the logistics of bringing together more than 1,200 performers from military bands from around the world.
The final line-up is still "under wraps" but it will include bands from Britain, Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere, and will also travel to New Zealand.
Front of stage will be the traditional Scottish favourites including Britain's best precision drill teams, pipers, fiddlers and highland dancers.
Brigadier Allfrey would not reveal how many planeloads or tonnes of equipment would be part of the tour, but joked that "the uniforms alone are well over the luggage allowance of any normal airline."
There will be no horses or jeeps, which have featured in previous Tattoos.
With its blend of military pomp, music and entertainment, the Tattoo plays to 220,000 people each year in Edinburgh and attracts an annual television audience of 100 million. Its last 16 seasons in Edinburgh have sold out, with 111,000 tickets sold for the coming 2015 performance in just nine hours last year.
Melbourne Lord Mayor Robert Doyle said the Tattoo was "one of the great stirring, visceral events of the world" and expected the 30,000-seat stadium to sell out.
The Tattoo has only left Scotland three times before, always for Australia and New Zealand: to Wellington in 2000 and Sydney in 2005 and 2010.
Brig Allfrey said he hoped that mastery of the logistics for this latest tour would open up audiences beyond Australia and New Zealand.
"We've got all sorts of adventures planned in future," he said.
"This develops an appetite for going abroad."


An installation of 140 animal shape sculptures is set on the deck of a barge, in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

As part of Gad Weil's artistic project "Climate Noah's Ark", two boats travelling along the River Seine carried the art project into Paris, as France prepares for a climate summit.
Leaders and important people from around the world will meet in the French capital in November to discuss the issues surrounding climate change.


New Zealand has described the entry of a Japanese whaling fleet vessel into its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) as "deeply disrespectful".

The incident happened late last week, as the vessel followed a boat belonging to activist group Sea Shepherd.
New Zealand's diplomats "made it very clear" the ship was not welcome, the foreign affairs minister said.
Japan rejects the criticism, saying the Sea Shepherd vessel tried to disrupt Japanese whaling in the Southern Ocean.
A Japanese government spokesman said under international rules, any ship was allowed to enter another country's declared economic zone, and that it had been necessary to protect Japanese whalers from the activists.
"In these situations, Japan's fishery agency will take the necessary safety measurements to protect Japan's whaling ships.
"As the result of such safety measurements, the Japanese vessel entered the EEZ. Under international maritime law, all countries' vessels are entitled to free passage in the economic zones. In this sense, we don't consider this case as posing any problem under international law."

But New Zealand Foreign Affairs Minister Murray McCully said the Japanese vessel ignored the request, prompting an official protest.
"On my instructions, the Japanese ambassador this afternoon met with a senior MFAT (Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade) official who conveyed New Zealand's deep disappointment at the vessel's entry into our EEZ," Mr McCully said in a statement on Monday.
The summons followed a similar action on Friday, when the most senior Japanese embassy representative present - the deputy head of mission - was called in.
After that meeting, Mr McCully said in a statement that Japanese whalers "had been insensitive to the views of New Zealanders by entering New Zealand's EEZ against our wishes".
The decision, he said, was "unhelpful, disrespectful and short-sighted".
The Japanese vessel, the Shonan Maru 2, did not enter New Zealand's territorial waters. It sailed in the EEZ, which lies between 12 and 200 nautical miles from the coastline.
New Zealand "has no legal means of excluding any vessel from entering", the Sunday statement acknowledged.
The Shonan Maru No 2 is one of the escort vessels for the Japanese fleet, which heads south every year to hunt whales.
There has been a ban on commercial whaling for 25 years, but Japan catches about 1,000 whales each year for what it calls scientific research. Critics say it is commercial whaling in another guise.
Activist group Sea Shepherd follows the fleet south and tries to disrupt the hunt. In recent years, there have been numerous clashes and incidents.
Australia, backed by New Zealand, is currently taking action against the Japanese whalers at the UN's International Court of Justice in The Hague.


Graham's The Family Dairy has reported a fall in sales and profits, following a "particularly challenging" year for the dairy industry.

The Stirlingshire-based company said it had been hit by falling dairy prices as production outstripped market demand.
Sales in the 12 months to March fell year-on-year by Â£2.9m to Â£83.6m, while pre-tax profit dipped slightly to Â£1.43m.
Graham's described its annual results as "solid".
In a statement, the company said: "Graham's commitment to quality and innovation has led to more than half of Scotland's population buying Graham's products.
"However, the global milk market has shown a great deal of instability and 2015 was a particularly challenging year in terms of milk volumes, with farmers producing more milk than the market could comfortably consume.
"The oversupply led to significant balancing costs for Graham's and deflation in the market."
The year saw Graham's expand into the quark, cottage cheese and sour cream market with the purchase of a Fife dairy.
Graham's already operated a dairy at Airthrey Kerse in Bridge of Allan, a processing plant in Nairn and depots throughout Scotland.
The company is waiting to find out whether plans to build a new dairy processing plant and housing development in Bridge of Allan will get the go-ahead.
Stirling Council rejected the plans in March but Graham's later appealed the decision. It is now being considered by the Scottish government's Department of Planning and Environmental Appeals.
The company also secured two major partnerships last year.
It became exclusive milk and whipping cream supplier to all 68 Starbucks stores across Scotland and signed a seven-figure deal to provide dairy products to customers of food supplier Brakes.
Earlier this month, Graham's was named as the most valuable Scottish dairy and food brand by consultancy Kantar Worldpanel.
Graham's managing director Robert Graham said: "We are pleased to have delivered a solid performance during what has been an incredibly challenging time for the entire dairy industry."


Reigning Olympic -57kg taekwondo champion Jade Jones is aiming to beat her opponents to the punch when she defends her title at Rio 2016.

The 22-year-old Welsh fighter earned the nickname of 'Head-hunter' when she arrived at the British Taekwondo Academy in Manchester in 2009.
But now she is adding more body blows to her trademark kicks to the head.
"When everyone is covering up and you can't score very easily... a big punch can win you a point," Jones said.
She began the season's World Taekwondo Grand Prix campaign with a silver medal in Moscow last weekend, losing to Iran's Kimia Alizadeh Zenoorin on a golden point.
Jones, who won gold at June's European Games in Baku, said before the competition that she was intending to develop her style and believes her new punching prowess should have paid dividends in Russia.
"I did that in the final [punched to the body] which I thought should have scored but I didn't get it," Jones told the BBC's Radio Wales Sport programme.

"I'm still not perfect yet for Rio but those Grands Prix are like [World] Championships, so to be getting to the finals every time is amazing to even do that.
"So I'm definitely in a good place going into Rio; there's still a year to go so I'm excited to see how much I can improve and how much I can change by then.
"I've had to learn to be mentally stronger and my kicks have gone faster... everything has got better now but I had youth on my side back then [at London 2012] - no fear and not over thinking!"
The second of this season's four Grands Prix events takes place in Samsun, Turkey, on 18-20 September, with Jones aiming to make amends for her final defeat in Russia.
"I'm really looking to go and win in Turkey, especially because I was so disappointed to lose so stupidly in the final in Moscow," she added.
"I was in control, I was winning 3-0 so all I had to do was run out of the ring or do anything and I juts got kicked in the head with five seconds to go."


Dressage riders usually rely on a secret language of minute lower-half squeezes and taps to guide their horse and conduct the choreography.

Natasha Baker's lines of communication are more tenuous.
"I can't use my legs at all when I ride so I have to talk to my horses to get them going," the woman nicknamed 'the Horse Whisperer' told the Daily Mirror.
"I can make the smallest of noises and they know what I want them to do."

After contracting transverse myelitis, a virus that damages the spine, at the age of 14 months, she has permanent nerve damage and weakness in her legs.
However through her voice and tiny changes in her seat position, the 26-year-old from Hammersmith can guide half a tonne of equine flesh and blood around the parade ring.
And in some style.
Back at the London 2012 Paralympics, Baker and mount Cabral won double gold.
Baker cannot remember life without her condition. And does not want to imagine a future without it either.
"I never knew what it was like to walk normally or to be able to run," she added.
"It has affected my whole life but in a positive way. If I didn't have this disability I wouldn't be sitting here in Rio. I feel so privileged to be in the position I am. I wouldn't want it any other way.
"If somebody came over to me tomorrow and said: 'We've got a cure for your disability,' I wouldn't take it."
Baker first sat on a horse at six months old and grew up around them on a farm, before watching the 2000 Games in Sydney and deciding that she wanted to be a para-dressage rider.
She teamed up with Cabral in 2009 and, while she initially intended to train up stable-mate Bam Bam in the wake of London 2012, the pair have stayed together to defend their titles in Rio.
So far, so good on that front.
In the dressage team event on Tuesday, Baker calmed an initially spooked Cabral to coax him to a class-topping score of 71.882%.
On Thursday she followed up her success in London by winning her second individual Paralympic gold on board Cabral.


About 100 Tata steelworkers gathered for a meeting in Port Talbot on Thursday evening to discuss the latest developments in the efforts to secure the future of the plant.

It came after the company entered negotiations with the German firm ThyssenKrupp over a merger.
Tata has put the sale of its Welsh operations on hold in the meantime.
The meeting was organised as unions are increasingly frustrated with how the process is being handled.
Alan Coombes of the Community Union said the meeting "went well" and it was "important to give people an opportunity to ask questions".
Steelworker and union representative Mark Davies said: "We've given some information to the workforce but we can't answer all their questions.
"We want to reassure the workforce the unions are doing all we can to fight for this business."
On Wednesday, the management buy-out team Excalibur said it would remain in the bidding process.
It said its objective was "to save jobs, protect threatened communities and preserve primary steel-making capacity in the United Kingdom".

Shot putter Nadzeya Ostapchuk has been suspended from competition after failing a drugs test and being stripped of her Olympic gold medal.

The Belarusian, 31, won with a throw of 21.36m, but officials found metenolone in a urine sample she provided.
New Zealand's Valerie Adams was elevated from second to first.
The Belarusian Athletics Federation have recommended a one-year ban but the International Association of Athletics Federations have yet to accept it.
Gold - Valerie Adams (New Zealand)
Silver - Evgeniia Kolodko (Russia)
Bronze - Lijiao Gong (China)
The head of the Belarusian anti-doping agency, Alexander Vanhadlo, said: "Yefimov confessed that he added the banned drug metenolone into Ostapchuk's food because he was worried by her unimpressive results ahead of the Olympics.
"Yefimov said that he did it at the training base in Belarus just days before the start of the Games without Ostapchuk's knowledge."
Ostapchuk won gold at the 2010 European Championships, but was second to Adams at the 2011 World Championships. She was competing in her third Olympics in London.
London 2012 saw the biggest anti-doping operation in the history of the Olympics.
Before the start of the Games, those competing were warned that 150 scientists were set to take 6,000 samples between now and the end of the Paralympic Games.
Every competitor who won a medal at the Olympics was tested.
British discus thrower Brett Morse apologised to his Twitter followers after accusing Ostapchuk of doping during the event.
After failing to qualify for the Olympics discus final, he tweeted: "I've had a bad day but it could be worse, I could look like Ostapchuk."


Edinburgh and Glasgow airports have recorded their busiest June on record for passenger traffic.

Edinburgh said nearly 1.1 million passengers passed through the airport - its second busiest month ever.
It was the second time in a row that the airport attracted more than one million passengers, having achieved the milestone in May.
Meanwhile, Glasgow recorded more than 905,000 passengers - an annual increase of 14.2%.
Edinburgh Airport saw domestic traffic rise year-on-year by 9.9% to nearly 476,000, thanks to increased services to London with Ryanair, Flybe and BA Cityflyer.
International passenger numbers rose by 11.1%, with a total of just under 623,00 people travelling through the airport.
Edinburgh said numbers were boosted by increased Easyjet services to Paris, Amsterdam, Milan, Nice, Berlin and Madrid and more Ryanair flights to Dublin, Rome and Barcelona.
Airport chief executive Gordon Dewar added: "We had an incredibly busy month in June with more passengers travelling through than ever before.
"As the summer properly gets underway we're anticipating our passenger numbers will continue to grow as people head off on the holidays."
Glasgow saw international traffic grow by 15.6% in June, while domestic passenger numbers were up by 12.2%.
The rise in domestic traffic was attributed to "significant increases" in demand for services to London.
An increase in demand for a number of regional services, including Belfast and Bristol, also contributed to the month's domestic growth.
Glasgow Airport managing director Amanda McMillan said: "June has always been a busy month at the airport with the arrival of the school holidays, but this year we were busier than ever as we continue to enjoy unprecedented levels of growth in our passenger numbers."
Aberdeen Airport recorded just under 324,000 passengers in June, a fall of 5.7% compared with a year ago.
Helicopter traffic continued to fall, slipping by 7.6% on 2014 levels, while fixed wing traffic was down by 5.4%.
Aberdeen Airport managing director Carol Benzie said "We have seen a reduction in traffic across both fixed wing and helicopter traffic last month compared with the same month last year as the oil and gas sector continues in its cost efficiency drive and the impacts are felt across the region.
"We also recognise that 2014 was a record year for us".


Ryan Day held off Stephen Maguire's fight back in the Riga Masters final to win 5-2 and take his first ranking title and return to the world's top 16.

Welshman Day took a 4-0 lead over the Scotsman only for Maguire to reply by winning the next two frames.
But after four previous defeats in finals in his 18-year career, the 37-year-old edged a cagey last frame to take the trophy.
Day had beaten fellow Welshman Mark Williams 5-4 to make the final.
Maguire beat Ireland's Ken Doherty 5-4 in the semi-finals to earn his chance against Day.

Errors in the use of communications data led to the arrests of 13 innocent people, a watchdog has said.

The wrongful arrests were among 23 serious mistakes made in acquiring 761,702 items of communications data, the Interception of Communications Commissioner report found.
Other incidents included delayed welfare checks on vulnerable people.
Communications data includes when and where electronic communications are made, but not their content.
The report found mistakes were made either by law enforcement agencies or communications service providers, with the majority of errors believed to relate to child abuse inquiries.
In these instances often the evidence used was an internet address which was wrongly linked to an individual.
There were six instances in which people unconnected to the investigations were visited by police and seven cases that resulted in delayed welfare checks on vulnerable individuals.
Of the 23 serious mistakes, 14 were human errors and the other nine "technical system errors".
Commissioner Sir Stanley Burnton's annual report said: "Any police action taken erroneously in such cases, such as the search of an individual's house that is unconnected to the investigation or a delayed welfare check on an individual whose life is believed to be at risk, can have a devastating impact on the individuals concerned."
Overall, 1,199 communications data errors were reported to the watchdog in 2015 - an increase of 20% on the previous year.
Of these, 86.6% were attributable to public authorities, 12.6% to communications service providers and 0.8% to other parties.
Nearly 94% of the requests were by police and law enforcement and just under 6% by the intelligence agencies.
The watchdog also inspected prisons and identified some instances where not all of the calls made by inmates subject to monitoring were being listened to, or that the calls were not being listened to quickly enough.
The report said: "This is of concern because a significant piece of intelligence could be missed completely or not reacted to promptly, leading to a serious incident occurring which may have otherwise been prevented."
Meanwhile, a separate report, also released on Thursday, revealed that security services made nearly double the number of mistakes using intelligence powers in 2015 than in the previous year.
Almost all of the 83 errors in 2015 led to an intrusion into privacy "to some degree", the Intelligence Services Commissioner found.
MI5 was also criticised for its form-filling procedures and for inserting unauthorised devices into MI5 systems, such as charging mobile phones, on six occasions.
BBC security correspondent Gordon Corera
Effective oversight is vital for ensuring spies and the police are not abusing their most intrusive powers.
Reports from the Interception of Communications Commissioner provide some of the most detailed evidence, especially when it comes to the increasingly important role of data and technology.
Its annual report - along with that of the Intelligence Services Commissioner also released today - suggests little evidence of deliberate abuse of powers.
But there are still signs of mistakes or sloppy practice.
In the case of communications data, this can be highly consequential with a small number of people arrested in relation to crimes, like suspected child abuse, when the wrong computer had been identified.
In the case of MI5, there also appears to be some problems in the way paperwork is filled out (of which there is far more for police and spies to do than TV dramas suggest) and also in some poor security practice in plugging in phones into secure computers.
There are also still some anomalies in oversight - for instance the use of so-called IMSI catchers to capture phone calls does not come under the Interception Commissioner's remit.
In a written statement to the Commons, Prime Minister Theresa May said both reports "recognise the diligence and rigour of those who use investigatory powers".
She said: "These are important powers that are used, when necessary, to keep our country safe.
"Both reports contain details of the recommendations that the commissioners have made to continue to improve the way that these powers are used.
"The public authorities who have received these recommendations will be giving careful consideration to them and how to further improve their processes."


More than 100 bottles of illegal alcohol have been seized from a pub, cafes and other businesses in Brighton.

The bottles were seized as part of an operation to tackle organised crime within the city's Albanian community, Sussex Police said.
Several premises are being investigated for breaching licence conditions, a spokeswoman added.
Earlier raids also saw eight people charged with drugs offences and 11 people arrested.
Details of the businesses involved have not been released - but police said the pub, two kebab shops, three cafe bars and an off-licence were still being investigated.
They were visited on Thursday by officers from Sussex Police, the Immigration Service, HM Revenue and Customs, and Brighton council licensing, trading standards and environmental health.


Welshman Lee Selby could fight Carl Frampton in a world featherweight unification bout in 2017, says Frampton's trainer.

WBA champion Frampton is first set for a rematch with Leo Santa Cruz, while Selby will defend his IBF title against challenger Jonathan Victor Barros.
Frampton's trainer Shane McGuigan hopes the contests will share a bill in the United States in December.
"They are both managed by Al Heymon," said McGuigan.
"So I think there is a chance we could put them together on the bill."
"We will potentially have an announcement about Carl Frampton's next fight before the week is out, or early next week.
"It is looking like the Leo Santa Cruz rematch and that's a great fight for us."
McGuigan says talks have started over a potential fight with Selby, who is promoted in the UK by Matchroom.
Know someone who volunteers in sport and deserves recognition for their efforts? Give them the chance to shine by nominating them.
Selby has already made clear he would like to face Frampton.
"I would like that fight in the summer and Carl would as well," said McGuigan.
"Lee sees the big money sign over Carl's head - he's an elite fighter, has been recognised in the United States as one of the top dogs.
"Lee is a warrior and wants to prove himself against Carl Frampton and I know he would take the fight straight away."


Irish champion trainer Willie Mullins and the Gigginstown House Stud have parted ways.

Mullins will lose about 60 horses as a result, including Don Poli, third in this year's Cheltenham Gold Cup and Ryanair Chase runner-up Valseur Lido.
"I put up my fees for the first time in 10 years and Gigginstown chose not to pay them," Mullins told At The Races.
The horses will be split between Gordon Elliott, Mouse Morris, Joseph O'Brien, Henry de Bromhead and Noel Meade.
Elliott told the Irish Independent he was likely to train about 20 of them, including Don Poli, Apple's Jade and Blow By Blow.
Gigginstown said the decision had been made with "considerable regret".
It added: "We hope that an agreement can be reached at some time in the future which will allow Willie to resume buying and training more graded winners for us."
The stud is owned by Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary.
Mullins said: "There's a fantastic team of horses going to whoever's going to get them, I don't know where they are going to go.
"It's all only been in the last few hours that this has come about. I wish them the best. It's the way it is. We just move on, I think."

A health service watchdog is investigating a hospital trust's finances after it reported a "significant deterioration" in funds.

Monitor said Doncaster and Bassetlaw Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is currently running at a Â£12.6m deficit.
The regulator said it was concerned the trust may record a "large loss" over the financial year, instead of the Â£2.2m surplus previously predicted.
The trust said it would "fully co-operating" with the investigation.
Doncaster Royal Infirmary, Bassetlaw District General Hospital, Retford Hospital and Montagu Hospital in Mexborough are run by the trust.
Monitor said the trust's financial position may force it to apply for further support for funding in the future.
The investigation will try to find out how the deficit has occurred.
Paul Chandler, regional director at Monitor, said: "People are relying on Doncaster and Bassetlaw to provide them with high quality healthcare now and in the future.
"Therefore, we need to make sure the trust can do this in a sustainable way and within its budget."
Mike Pinkerton, chief executive of Doncaster and Bassetlaw Hospitals, said: "On October 20, the trust announced inaccuracies in the reporting of the trust's financial position.
"An internal and external investigation into how our finances have been managed is already under way.
"As a trust, we will be working hard to maximise savings by remaining focussed on putting patient care first and scrutinising how we currently do things."
Last week, a report by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) rated the hospital trust as "requiring improvement".
The CQC said staff vacancies were "impacting on the quality of service" in some areas, but did praise the trust over several areas of outstanding practice.


Paris is to open its first refugee camp next month in response to asylum seekers living in the city's streets.

Mayor Anne Hidalgo said a camp to house 400 men would be opened at a site in the north of the city in mid-October.
A camp for women and children, in the suburb of Ivry-sur-Seine, will follow by the end of the year.
Meanwhile, a planned centre for 200 asylum seekers in Essonne, 30km (20 miles) south-west of Paris, was set on fire overnight, investigators say.
Makeshift camps have appeared in public areas and streets in Paris, before being cleared by police.
Hundreds of people were dispersed in the city hours before the latest announcement.
The two camps will cost an estimated 6.5m euros (Â£5.4; $7.3m). They will provide shelter and medical care for asylum seekers for five to ten days.
The planned centre in Essonne, at Forges-les-Bains, was due to take in 90 people in October.
A meeting on Monday evening to discuss it was attended by protesters, according to French media, but dispersed late in the evening. The fire was reported to the authorities at about 02:30 (00:30 GMT).
French police are expected to launch an investigation into the cause of the blaze.
Ms Hidalgo said the fire was "a disgrace".
"The people who did this should be utterly ashamed of themselves because if they think this is the way we express our country's values then they're quite wrong," she told French broadcaster BFMTV (in French).
"It's detestable, deplorable and criminal to act in this manner. I hope they'll be found and punished as appropriate."
Calls have mounted to close the migrant camp in Calais in the north of France, near the entrance to the Channel Tunnel. Protesters caused severe disruption earlier this week as they blockaded roads near the port town, demanding the closure of the "Jungle" camp.
Hundreds formed a human chain, joined by farmers and local businesspeople. Calais mayor Natacha Bouchart, who was among the protesters, said things were "becoming unbearable and something needs to be done".
About 7,000 migrants now live in the "Jungle", often in squalor, as many attempt to reach Britain in lorries crossing the Channel. In August, the authorities in France and the UK agreed to increase security and humanitarian aid in Calais, and further secure the Channel Tunnel.


As US President Barack Obama visits Mexico this week, he may want to consider the new realities of the country, says Shannon O'Neil, from the Council on Foreign Relations.

President Obama's visit to Mexico is part of a long tradition of diplomatic relations between the US and its neighbour to the south.
But while many Americans feel that they understand the basic economic and social forces that drive Mexico, the realities are much more interesting.
Here five myths about Mexico, that have a direct impact on American foreign policy, are debunked.
Though many Americans think of Mexico as a country of either wealth or poverty, by most accounts it is now a middle-class country.
A majority of Mexican households - incorporating roughly 60m people - now have disposable income. Half of the people in Mexico own their own car, and one-third own a computer. Nearly everyone has a television and mobile phone.
These new urban middle-class Mexicans are also investing in their children's education. There are now 45,000 private schools, comprising nearly a third of all Mexico's schools.
Student enrollment in universities and beyond has tripled in the past 30 years, from under a million in 1980 to almost three million today.
The rise of the middle class has affected Mexico's politics, too, with this segment pivotal in voting out the long-ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) in 2000, and then voting them back in to Los Pinos, Mexico's White House, last year.
This crucial voting bloc is increasingly up for grabs, rapidly joining the ranks of Mexico's proclaimed political independents.
They mirror the US middle class in their concerns, paying close attention to economic opportunities and security, two important issues in US-Mexico relations.
For Mexico, the biggest issues in the US-Mexico relationship are economic, and President Enrique Pena Nieto is hoping to deepen commercial ties between the two nations.
In his State of the Union address, President Obama praised Ford Motor Company for bringing jobs back from Mexico as part of a strategy to make "America a magnet for new jobs and manufacturing".
Yet this statement, at least with regard to Mexico, is mistaken.
It isn't that globalisation doesn't lead some jobs to foreign lands. It does. But by expanding abroad, companies become more competitive, supporting and creating jobs at home.
Ford increased its US workforce (and plans on adding thousands more jobs by 2015), but it hasn't stopped hiring in Mexico. It is expanding a plant in Hermosillo and adding over 1,000 positions in the last few years in the state of Sonora.
A study by two Harvard business professors and a University of Michigan colleague shows that for every 10 people hired overseas by American corporations, two new jobs are created in the United States.
The images of hundreds of thousands of Mexican immigrants illegally entering the United States each year, chased down by border patrol agents on foot, horseback, or truck, resonates widely. But this reality has changed.
The estimated numbers coming north each year are down to levels last seen in the 1970s.
In fact, a 2012 Pew Hispanic Report noted that the net immigration for Mexicans in and out of the United States was "zero". In other words the same numbers of Mexicans entered and left.
This can in part be explained by the US recession, but it also reflects changes within Mexico.
Mexico has undergone a major demographic shift in the last generation. In the 1970s, women were having an average of seven children, but today that number is closer to two - the same as the US.
With fewer citizens coming of age each year relative to the overall population, the decades where Mexico's "extra youths" headed to the US are over.
Although many feared that the 2012 return of the PRI would push Mexico back into its authoritarian past, checks and balances now exist and constrain whomever wears the presidential sash.
In Mexico's Congress, the three major political parties must negotiate to get any bill passed, and the nation's Supreme Court has increasingly exercised its autonomy to restrain both political officials and vested interests.
The country's media and civil society groups more generally are beginning to play an important watchdog role, questioning policies and exposing bad behaviour.
And finally, Mexico has reached a relatively enviable space, ranking in the upper tiers of nearly all relative international measures of democracy.
Over the last six years, some 70,000 Mexicans have been killed in drug-related violence, and tens of thousands more have disappeared.
Mexico's police have often been unwilling or unable to stem the bloodshed, and the judicial system too has failed - with just 2% of all crimes ending in convictions.
But while Mexico faces a serious security threat from organised criminal groups, the country continues to collect taxes, build roads, run schools, expand social welfare programmes and hold free and fair elections.
Its economy has grown steadily, if somewhat slowly, and Mexico maintains an important presence in multilateral groups and summits.
It has also begun the long and arduous path of professionalising its police forces and transforming its courts to create a democratic rule of law.
One thing about Mexico that remains true is the deep and now permanent economic, political, security, and personal links between Mexico and the United States.
For Presidents Obama and Pena Nieto, there is much to gain from a better understanding of each other's country.

The US secretary of state has rejected an offer of talks with President Vladimir Putin until Russia engages with US proposals on Ukraine's crisis.

John Kerry told his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov that Moscow's military intervention in Crimea had made any negotiations extremely difficult.
US officials say there will be little to discuss if the referendum on whether Crimea should join Russia goes ahead.
Ukraine and the West say the vote, due to be held on Sunday, is illegal.
In other developments on Tuesday:

Russia said on Monday it was drafting counter-proposals to a US plan for a negotiated solution to the crisis.
Moscow has condemned Ukraine's new Western-backed government as an unacceptable "fait accompli" - it says that Russian-leaning parts of the country have been turned into havens of  lawlessness.
Meanwhile Russian forces have strengthened their control over Crimea.
Pro-Russian troops are blockading Ukrainian troops across Crimea, which is an autonomous region.
Moscow has officially denied that its troops are taking part in the blockades, describing the armed men with no insignia as Crimea's "self-defence" forces.

The government in Kiev - as well as the US and EU - accuse Russia of invading Ukraine, in violation of international law.
In a televised briefing with President Putin on Monday, Mr Lavrov said proposals made by Mr Kerry for a negotiated solution to the crisis were "not suitable" because they took "the situation created by the coup as a starting point", referring to the overthrow of Ukraine's pro-Russian President, Viktor Yanukovych.
Washington says that there has been no official response yet to a set of questions Mr Kerry gave Mr Lavrov at the weekend, asking in particular whether Moscow is prepared to meet officials from the new Ukrainian government.
"The United States needs to see concrete evidence that Russia is prepared to engage on the diplomatic proposals we have made to facilitate direct dialogue between Ukraine and Russia and to use international mechanisms like a contact group to deescalate the conflict," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in a recent written statement.
"Kerry made clear to Foreign Minister Lavrov that he would welcome further discussions focused on how to de-escalate the crisis in Ukraine if and when we see concrete evidence that Russia is prepared to engage on these proposals," she added.

Dozens of journalists travelled to the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don, near the Ukrainian border, to find the answers to two questions: Was Viktor Yanukovych still alive, both in fact and as a politician?
Mr Yanukovych was supposed to hold a news conference. But when all the journalists were let into the conference hall, the organisers said that no questions should be asked. There would only be a statement.
Many of my colleagues were very disappointed. They even tried to shout their questions out when Mr Yanukovych was leaving.
The ousted Ukrainian president looked confident at first. But when he was quoting the words of the Ukrainian anthem his voice suddenly wavered. And so did his confidence, it seems.
Surprisingly, the man who used to rule Ukraine did not find the words to talk about the possible breakaway of one of his country's regions, Crimea.
She said "it was conceivable" that Mr Kerry might meet Mr Lavrov prior to the planned Crimean referendum but that the secretary of state first wanted to ensure that Moscow would engage seriously on US diplomatic proposals.
Meanwhile, Nato on Monday announced that it is to deploy Awacs reconnaissance planes in Poland and Romania to monitor the Ukrainian crisis.
Nato said the surveillance flights would "enhance the alliance's situational awareness".
Last week, the military alliance said it was reviewing all co-operation with Russia and stepping up its engagement with the government in Kiev.
Step-by-step, and meeting very little resistance, pro-Russian troops are dismantling Ukraine's ability to resist in Crimea, says the BBC's Christian Fraser, who is in the region.
President Putin has defended Crimea's decision to stage the referendum. "The steps taken by Crimea's legitimate authorities are based on international law," he said.
However, German Chancellor Angela Merkel told him in a phone call that she considered the vote illegal.
Both EU leaders and the US have warned Moscow they would impose sanctions if Russian troops remained in Crimea.
Unrest in Ukraine erupted in November after former President Viktor Yanukovych's last-minute rejection of a landmark EU deal in favour of a bailout from Russia.
Mr Yanukovych was ousted last month, and a new government has been voted in by the Ukrainian parliament which Russia says was a "coup".


Ikechi Anya says performances in the Euro 2016 campaign mean expectations are now higher as Scotland prepare for the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.

Anya believes Scotland came out of the Euro qualifiers with credit, though finished fourth behind Germany, Poland and the Republic of Ireland in Group D.
"I think you have to be positive about anything you do," said the 28-year-old.
"We have got a good average age for the group, we've got our experience and we've got our youth."
Scotland will face England, Slovakia, Slovenia, Lithuania and Malta in Group F qualifying for the World Cup finals in Russia. They kick off their campaign with a match away to Malta on 4 September.
"I think it is vitally important that we go in there and believe that we can qualify," said the Watford winger.
"Before this recent campaign I don't really think people believed in us as much as we believed in ourselves.
"We came out of it with a bit of credit for the previous campaign and generally the thought is we can qualify for 2018."
Scotland are in friendly action this week, first away to Czech Republic on Thursday before a home game against Denmark at Hampden on Tuesday.


GP practices should be given more money in return for prompt appointments, the Welsh Liberal Democrats have said.

The party said its planned Â£10m Access to GPs scheme would also fund extended opening hours, with the most innovative bids for cash being rewarded.
Welsh Lib Dem leader Kirsty Williams said it would "guarantee the best treatment at the right time".
Meanwhile the Welsh Conservatives said they would crack down on big pay-offs for NHS bosses if they won power.
The Tories said it followed the news that the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board was still paying its former chief executive Trevor Purt his Â£200,000-a-year salary after he took up a job in England.
Shadow Health Minister Darren Millar said it was time to put an end to a system which appeared to "reward failure".
