A Dutch woman officially recognised as the world's oldest person has died at the age of 115.
Hendrikje van Andel-Schipper died in her sleep at the care home where she lived, the director of the centre said.
The former needlework teacher was born in 1890, and often said her long life was down to a daily dose of herring.
Mrs van Andel's husband died of cancer in 1959, but she continued to live on her own until she moved into the retirement home at the age of 105.
Commonly known as Hennie, she entered the Guinness Book of Records as the world's oldest person in 2004.
Her successor is another 115-year-old woman, Elizabeth Bolden of Tennessee, in the US. The oldest man is Puerto Rican Emiliano Mercado del Toro, 114.
