1
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: From the Daily Os. I'm Lucy, I'm Zara. It's Friday,

2
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: the sixth of December. Here's what's making headlines this evening.

3
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 2: Victoria's Arson Squad is investigating what it says was a

4
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: deliberate and targeted attack on a Melbourne synagogue. Witnesses say

5
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,079
Speaker 2: they saw two masked individuals at the synagogue pouring a

6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 2: liquid on the floor before a quote deliberately lit fire

7
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 2: destroyed much of the building. Detective Inspector Chris Murray said

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: an accelerant had been found at the synagogue. PM Anthony

9
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 2: Alberizi has condemned the incident, saying he has quote zero

10
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: tolerance for anti Semitism, while Opposition leader Peter Dudden called

11
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: it totally unacceptable.

12
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: Woolworths has filed an application with the Fair Work Commission

13
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: over ongoing employee strikes at several of its distribution centers.

14
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: The employees, who are members of the United Workers' Union,

15
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: have blocked the entrances to four distribution centers across Victoria

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: and New South Wales as part of an indefinite strike

17
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: for quote, safer warehouses, fair pay and the same rights

18
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: at every site. Blocking the distribution sites has meant goods

19
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: can't reach stores, leading to empty shelves at some Woolworth supermarkets.

20
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: Woolworth said it believed the majority of its employees at

21
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: these centers weren't union members and wanted to quote return

22
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 1: to work to begin being paid. The UWU has said

23
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: its members quote don't want empty shelves, but can't go

24
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: back in until Woolworth's puts their safety first.

25
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 2: Members of South Korea's parliament will vote tomorrow night on

26
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: whether to impeach President yunsuk yol. It comes days after

27
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 2: President Yun put the country under military rule or martial

28
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: law for several hours overnight until a majority vote of

29
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 2: MPs forced him to back down. The motion to impeach

30
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 2: comes from the opposing Democratic Party. However, Korean media reports

31
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: some members of Yun's own party could support the motion.

32
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: The leader of the People Power Party has said that

33
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: although he previously work to stop the impeachment, he now

34
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 2: believes that President Yun's immediate suspension from duty is necessary

35
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: to protect the Republic of Korea and its people. The

36
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: impeachment motion needs a support of two hundred members of

37
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 2: parliament to pass, which means at least eight members of

38
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: Yun's party have to vote for it.

39
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: And today's good news, a team of researchers from South

40
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: Australia and China have developed a new strategy to make

41
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: water desalination more efficient, which could increase the world's supply

42
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: of fresh drinking water. Currently, seawater evaporates more slowly than

43
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: fresh water, such as that found in rivers and lakes.

44
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: That means desalination plants use a lot of energy to

45
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: turn salt water into drinkable water. With the addition of

46
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: some common minerals to a pre existing water evaporator, the

47
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: scientists found they could make seawater evaporate faster than freshwater,

48
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: increasing efficiency. Lead scientist Professor Harlan Schu said this new

49
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: strategy will provide additional access to massive amounts of clean water,

50
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: benefiting billions of people worldwide.

51
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: Well, that wraps up another week of the Daily Ods.

52
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 2: Don't forget to tune in tomorrow for a bit of

53
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 2: good news. Sam and I will be taking you through

54
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: the bright stories you might have missed this week. But

55
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 2: until tomorrow morning, have a lovely evening.
