China's Shenzhou-20 astronauts blast off for space station: AFP

A Chinese rocket carrying three astronauts to the country's space station blasted off from its remote launch site on Thursday, AFP journalists saw.

In a plume of flame and smoke, the Long March-2F rocket lifted into the air at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base in the desert of northwest China, heralding the start of the six-month Shenzhou-20 mission.
