Speaker 1: Taipei at the Games in Paris, taking the top spot

5
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: in the women's doubles. Is this the moment the Australians

6
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 1: will clinch gold? Will Taypey make a decent return and

7
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: that's it? It's all over Australia. Plot there over the line.

9
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,519

Speaker 1: major weather warnings and are on high alert along the

Speaker 1: the state grapples with severe weather that some are calling unprecedented.

21
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: More than five million Australians will see a boost and

22
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 1: income support payments as they become aligned with indexation rates.

23
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: From the end of this month, Age pensioners will see

24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: a twenty eight dollar rise to their fortnightly payments. The

25
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: same jump will apply to disability support and CARERA subsidies.

26
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: Renters can also claim ten percent extra in Commonwealth rent assistance.

27
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: Speaking to Sky News, the Minister for Social Services, Amanda

28
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: Rishworth says it's about providing essential cost of living relief.

00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: a mass vaccination program by UNICEF across Gaza later today.

00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: Doctors will conduct the vaccinations during eight hour daily pauses

35
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: in fighting between the IDF and Hamas militants. UNSEF says

00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: it's aiming to vaccinate six hundred and forty thousand children

37
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: and babies after the first case of polio in Gaza

38
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: was confirmed last week. Meanwhile, Palestinian families have begun to

39
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: emerge from hiding in a refugee camp in the occupied

40
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 1: West Bank following four days of Israeli military raids. At

41
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: least twenty people have been killed during the large scale

42
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: operation in Janine. Israel says this is a counter terrorism

43
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: operation to dismantle armed Palestinian groups who they claim are

44
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: backed by Iran. The Prime Minister has admitted he wasn't

45
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: aware of a seventeen year old boy who took his

46
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: own life behind buz at WA's Banksier Hill detention center

47
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: this week. Anthony Albanesi is visiting Perth today and Wa

48
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: Green Senator Derinda Cox is calling on him to intervene

49
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: in the state's youth detention system.

50
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: If the Prime Minister or is not across this before

51
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 2: he flies into pers he should get across this. This

52
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 2: is a serious issue where we now see two children's

53
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: lives being lost in state custody. Two kids in twelve

54
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: months is not good enough.

55
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: The boy arrived at the facility two days before the

56
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: incident and ten months after sixteen year old Cleveland Dodd

57
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: died in Casharina's Unit eighteen. A national nursing shortage is

58
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: being blamed for delaying efforts to improve the aged care sector.

59
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: The federal government expects providers to increase the care delivered

60
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 1: to each patient to forty four minutes a day that

61
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: operators say they're struggling to attract and retain staff. The

62
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: nurse deficit is likely to double by twenty thirty as

63
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: demand continues to rise and the price of cigarettes goes

64
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,839
Speaker 1: up from today, as concerns the increase will force more

65
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: smokers to turn to the black market. Australia's prices are

66
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: already the highest in the world, and a criminologist believes

67
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: the incoming six point eight percent hike being brought in

68
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: to help users quit will instead fuel the sale of

69
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: illegal tobacco in sport and to the AFL. First the

72
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: confirmation ending several weeks of uncertainty and speculation in the

73
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,480
