Before a shark attack on 34-year-old Sydney teacher and mother Leah Stewart in June, in which she lost an arm, drone surveillance was not permitted at Coogee because it lies directly under the flight path from Sydney airport’s east-west runway. Surf Life Saving NSW drone operator Taha Kafil-Hussain explains how the technology is helping keep swimmers safe

Wong expressed “outrage” over the Israel Defense Forces decision not to open a criminal investigation into Gaza strikes that killed the Australian aid worker and six of her colleagues.
But Israel’s ambassador to Australia, Hillel Newman, who was called in for formal talks on Thursday, offered no concession, insisting the process was appropriate while refusing to apologise for the seven humanitarian workers’ deaths, citing legal implications.
“There are a lot of haters of Israel in Australia,” Newman said as he left Parliament House. “We have seen this time and time again.”
“A court came to decision that there’s no criminal liability, so we’re not going to lynch people on the streets, no.”

Subscribe to Guardian Australia on YouTube and hit the bell to see new videos ► https://www.youtube.com/@GuardianAustralia?sub_confirmation=1
It's a town that sits within the electorate of Barnaby Joyce. While Joyce was a key voice supporting Armidale's establishment as a refugee resettlement site, he's since defected from the Nationals to One Nation, a party which wants to ban all migrants who don't speak English. Guardian Australia's community affairs reporter Adeshola Ore travels to Armidale to speak with Joyce and community members, including refugees, to find out how the town squares with One Nation's vision of a monoculture.
