Now an investigation by 'The Margin' has found records showing the U-S military spent years moving pesticide-contaminated soil on the base and that regulators were warned as early as 2012.
Co-host of ‘The Pacific’ Johnson Raela talks to the journalist behind the story, Hugo Hodge, about the investigation.

- The Australian share market has recovered slightly from its biggest one-day loss since the early days of the Iran War. The Australian dollar has fallen below 69.5 US cents, partly because markets are now betting the Reserve Bank's rate-hiking cycle is nearly over. AI data centre company Firmus is planning to list on the ASX later this month and is targeting a valuation of $43.7 billion. It comes as the RBA warns of financial stability risks posed by the AI investment boom. Presented by David Chau.
