Day in Photos: Christmas Meat Auction, Delegation Plane Crash, and California Storm
Workers sell joints of meat during the annual Christmas Eve meat auction at Smithfield Market in London on Dec. 24, 2025. For the past century, the historic market traditionally held a meat sale on Christmas Eve where traders sell off surplus meats. In 2024, it was announced that Smithfield, the largest wholesale meat market in the UK, would permanently close by 2028. The closure will bring an end to more than 800 years of trading at the location. (Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)MOREHIDE
