These weapons are termed ‘less lethal’, but they can cause serious injury or even kill if misused.
While police are deploying these weapons publicly, they often go to great lengths not to publicise what weapons they have and how they’re being used. Guardian Australia's investigations team spent months reviewing protest footage, court and tender records and speaking to experts to build the most comprehensive picture yet of what our police have in their arsenal and what damage they can do.

That imbalance shapes the experience of players and fans alike. Bernardo Ramallo, who works with non-profit Soccer Without Borders says young soccer players have long endured jibes that the sport is ‘weak’ compared with American football.

Irankunda finished a brilliant end-to-end attack with a goal in the 27th minute, then ran to shadowbox the corner flag like former Socceroos champion Tim Cahill used to do. ‘It was a good goal in my opinion,’ Irankunda said. ‘I had to dedicate the celebration to Tim Cahill’

One dramatic save at the 27th minute mark ended with a goal from Australia's Nestory Irankunda. 'We know one of our threats is our pace up front,' he said. 'I just saw an opportunity to get it out wide, and then within two or three passes, Nes was in the 18-yard box and having a crack on goal. And then it was absolute limbs, wasn’t it?' The save was the best of a half dozen stops that prevented Turkey from first equalising, and then in the dying stages from mounting a comeback

- “Wars are not good,” says the Wimmera farmer John Bennett from inside a workshop on his 10,000 hectare farm. Bennett’s property is more than 11,000km from the strait of Hormuz, yet conflict in the Middle East is having a daily impact on his life.

He estimates increased fertiliser costs and delays spurred by blockage of the vital shipping lane could strip about $600,000 from his farm’s bottom line. “Numbers are big in farming,” Bennett says. “Not a lot comes out at the end of the pipe.”

- When Guardian Australia senior reporter Sarah Martin heard a friend’s hairdresser had invested in a cryptocurrency scheme called HyperVerse and potentially lost all her money, she decided to investigate.

She soon found many more members of the scheme, in Australia and around the world. A person in the UK had lost £1m from the sale of his home that he’d put into HyperVerse; an Australian who had recruited his mates lost $100,000 – and lost his friendships too.
In this short documentary, interviews with former HyperVerse participants are woven through Sarah’s recounting of the rabbit hole she fell down as she investigated the scheme, how it worked, and tried to find out who was responsible for it all.
