A US judge has set a trial date in the case over the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, which killed 270 people when Pan Am Flight 103 was blown up over Scotland. The judge warned against any further delays in proceedings. The suspect, Abu Agila Mohammad Mas'ud Kheir Al-Marimi, faces charges in the US connected to the attack, one of the deadliest terrorist incidents in British history.
