A Sydney man has been accused 6 00:00:31,014 --> 00:00:34,534 Speaker 1: of producing child abuse materials of kids aged six and 7 00:00:34,694 --> 00:00:38,854 Speaker 1: under while working across suburban schools. Police alleged the twenty 8 00:00:38,894 --> 00:00:42,894 Speaker 1: six year old produced material of ten victims while working 9 00:00:42,894 --> 00:00:45,534 Speaker 1: as an out of school care at service providers in 10 00:00:45,574 --> 00:00:48,894 Speaker 1: the northern suburbs of Sydney and the CBD between April 11 00:00:48,934 --> 00:00:52,534 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one and May twenty twenty four. Details of 12 00:00:52,574 --> 00:00:56,814 Speaker 1: the Australian Federal Police investigation were revealed on Thursday after 13 00:00:56,854 --> 00:01:01,174 Speaker 1: court issued non publication orders were revoked. The Artaman man 14 00:01:01,214 --> 00:01:04,534 Speaker 1: has been remanded in custody since October twenty twenty four. 15 00:01:05,094 --> 00:01:09,014 Speaker 1: It's believed he allegedly offended at six locations, but parents 16 00:01:09,054 --> 00:01:12,294 Speaker 1: at fifteen to other locations, including some of Sydney's most 17 00:01:12,374 --> 00:01:17,494 Speaker 1: elite schools, have been notified. AFP Acting Assistant Commissioner Brett 18 00:01:17,574 --> 00:01:20,294 Speaker 1: James is expected to reveal further details at a press 19 00:01:20,334 --> 00:01:24,654 Speaker 1: conference later today. Australia's potential recognition of a Palestinian state 20 00:01:24,734 --> 00:01:28,454 Speaker 1: is gaining momentum, with Treasurer Jim Chalmers indicating its matter 21 00:01:28,534 --> 00:01:32,574 Speaker 1: of when not if, this comes after similar announcements from 22 00:01:32,574 --> 00:01:36,374 Speaker 1: countries like Canada, the UK and France, or moving towards 23 00:01:36,414 --> 00:01:41,654 Speaker 1: formally acknowledging Palestinian's statehood. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says 24 00:01:41,774 --> 00:01:46,054 Speaker 1: recognition would be contingent on the demilitarization and exclusion of 25 00:01:46,094 --> 00:01:50,734 Speaker 1: Hamas from any future leadership role. The Albanese government views 26 00:01:50,734 --> 00:01:54,174 Speaker 1: Palestinian statehood as a vital step towards a two state solution, 27 00:01:54,774 --> 00:01:57,374 Speaker 1: believing it offers the most promising pathway to break the 28 00:01:57,494 --> 00:02:01,294 Speaker 1: enduring cycle of violence in the region. Although the government 29 00:02:01,334 --> 00:02:05,294 Speaker 1: supports the initiative, a specific timeline for Australia's recognition has 30 00:02:05,334 --> 00:02:09,134 Speaker 1: not yet been set. Opposition French bencher James Patterson has 31 00:02:09,134 --> 00:02:14,654 Speaker 1: expressed reservations, arguing against premature recognition before a comprehensive peace 32 00:02:14,734 --> 00:02:19,654 Speaker 1: process is concluded. Meantime, Greene's Senator Sarah Hanson Young is 33 00:02:19,814 --> 00:02:23,214 Speaker 1: urging the federal government to align with comparable nations and 34 00:02:23,294 --> 00:02:28,334 Speaker 1: formally recognize Palestine without further delay. Victoria police have commended 35 00:02:28,334 --> 00:02:31,654 Speaker 1: the brave actions of their officers following a critical incident 36 00:02:31,694 --> 00:02:35,894 Speaker 1: at Yarrow Junction yesterday evening. Police say officers were confronted 37 00:02:35,934 --> 00:02:38,454 Speaker 1: with a horrific scene after responding to a call from 38 00:02:38,454 --> 00:02:41,534 Speaker 1: a mother reporting a violent fight involving her son and 39 00:02:41,574 --> 00:02:45,014 Speaker 1: a samurai sword. Upon arrival, they found a woman who 40 00:02:45,094 --> 00:02:49,534 Speaker 1: was the man's sister, with severe injuries. Despite deploying tases 41 00:02:49,614 --> 00:02:53,494 Speaker 1: three times, the man allegedly continued his assault, leading one 42 00:02:53,534 --> 00:02:58,214 Speaker 1: officer to discharge their firearm, fatally wounding him. Police believe 43 00:02:58,254 --> 00:03:02,574 Speaker 1: the officer's swift intervention likely saved the woman's life. The 44 00:03:02,574 --> 00:03:05,774 Speaker 1: severely injured woman was airlifted to hospital and remains in 45 00:03:05,814 --> 00:03:10,614 Speaker 1: an induced coma with life threatening injuries. Aloraities are continuing 46 00:03:10,654 --> 00:03:15,254 Speaker 1: their investigations into this traumatic event. US President Donald Trump's 47 00:03:15,294 --> 00:03:18,734 Speaker 1: push to release grand jury testimony in the Jeffrey Epstein 48 00:03:18,774 --> 00:03:22,494 Speaker 1: and Galain Maxwell's sex trafficking cases has hit a roadblock. 49 00:03:22,814 --> 00:03:27,094 Speaker 1: Trump's administration had urged federal judges to unseal the testimony, 50 00:03:27,534 --> 00:03:31,454 Speaker 1: citing public interest in the high profile cases. However, the 51 00:03:31,494 --> 00:03:35,414 Speaker 1: courts have pushback, asking the government to provide stronger legal 52 00:03:35,494 --> 00:03:40,854 Speaker 1: justifications for releasing the confidential materials. Prosecutors previously revealed only 53 00:03:40,894 --> 00:03:44,814 Speaker 1: an FBI agent testified at Epstein's grand jury, and only 54 00:03:44,854 --> 00:03:49,974 Speaker 1: that agent plus a detective testified at Maxwell's. This judicial 55 00:03:50,014 --> 00:03:53,494 Speaker 1: hesitation comes as both Republicans and Democrats have been calling 56 00:03:53,574 --> 00:03:59,334 Speaker 1: for transparency around Epstein related files. Australian travelers are changing 57 00:03:59,374 --> 00:04:02,614 Speaker 1: their flying habits. Flight Center says it will miss its 58 00:04:02,694 --> 00:04:06,534 Speaker 1: already downgraded profit forecast, mostly due to escalating tensions in 59 00:04:06,534 --> 00:04:09,014 Speaker 1: the Middle East and a global downturn in bookings to 60 00:04:09,014 --> 00:04:12,294 Speaker 1: the United Slime States during the June quarter. In May, 61 00:04:12,454 --> 00:04:15,374 Speaker 1: the World Travel and Tourism Council warned the US was 62 00:04:15,454 --> 00:04:17,814 Speaker 1: the only one of one hundred and eighty four economies 63 00:04:17,854 --> 00:04:22,414 Speaker 1: that were seeing international visitor spending decline. Australians are increasingly 64 00:04:22,454 --> 00:04:26,734 Speaker 1: opting for closer to home destinations like China, Japan, Fiji 65 00:04:26,774 --> 00:04:31,654 Speaker 1: and New Zealand, or delaying their travel plans altogether.
