0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:08.879
<v Speaker 1>From the Daily Os. I'm emma, I'm lucy. It's Friday,

0:00:08.920 --> 0:00:11.920
<v Speaker 1>the fourteenth of March. Here's what's making headlines this evening.

0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:17.840
<v Speaker 2>Prime Minister Anthony Albanesi has confirmed he will speak with

0:00:17.920 --> 0:00:22.280
<v Speaker 2>European Union leaders about the possibility of sending Australian peacekeeping

0:00:22.320 --> 0:00:25.639
<v Speaker 2>troops to Ukraine. The PM said he was invited to

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 2>participate in talks with the UK led quote Coalition of

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 2>the Willing by his British counterpart, Keir Starmer. The coalition

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:37.360
<v Speaker 2>was formed during recent crisis talks in London to boost

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:41.680
<v Speaker 2>support for Ukraine and end Russia's war there. Albanesi said

0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 2>Canada and New Zealand had also accepted an invitation to

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 2>join discussions with other leaders from European countries, including France,

0:00:49.600 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 2>Italy and Germany. Speaking in Perth today, Albanizi said, quote,

0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:56.720
<v Speaker 2>we look forward to their being peace in Ukraine, but

0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 2>we don't have to think very hard about which side

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 2>we're on in this conflict. Russia is the aggressor.

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:07.759
<v Speaker 1>The United Nations has accused Israel of genocidal acts in

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:11.680
<v Speaker 1>a new report. The findings from an independent UN commission

0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:15.440
<v Speaker 1>also accuse Israeli forces of the systemic use of sexual,

0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:19.520
<v Speaker 1>reproductive and other gender based violence against women in Gaza.

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:23.679
<v Speaker 1>The paper examines what it calls Israel's widespread destruction and

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:28.480
<v Speaker 1>disproportionate violence, including the targeting of residential buildings and the

0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 1>indiscriminate use of heavy explosives in densely populated areas. It

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:37.199
<v Speaker 1>also alleges attacks on sexual and reproductive health care facilities

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 1>in Gaza as a method of war by Israel. Israeli

0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Prime Minister Benjamin Netnya, who has rejected the findings and

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 1>labeled the UN Human Rights Council as anti Semitic, rotten,

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and terrorist supporting.

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 2>US President Donald Trump has threatened a two hundred percent

0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 2>tariff on European alcohol. It comes amid an escalating trade

0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:02.720
<v Speaker 2>war between the two regions, which started with a blanket

0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.480
<v Speaker 2>twenty five percent tariff on mesals imported to the US

0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:09.919
<v Speaker 2>from the EU. Trump's alcohol tax came after Europe announced

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 2>plans to add a fifty percent tax on all US whiskey.

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 2>Wine is Europe's biggest export to the US, and the

0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:20.720
<v Speaker 2>two hundred percent tariff could cost billions. EU and US

0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:25.400
<v Speaker 2>officials are continuing negotiations to avoid further trade tensions. It

0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 2>comes as Australia continues its efforts to avoid a twenty

0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 2>five percent tariff on aluminium and steel imports to the US.

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:38.680
<v Speaker 1>And today's good news, Aussie scientists have learned more about

0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the history of Antarctica by analyzing penguin pooh. It's the

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>good news you didn't see coming. Researchers from the University

0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:48.760
<v Speaker 1>of Adelaide traveled to the Ross Sea on the coast

0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:52.440
<v Speaker 1>of Antarctica, where they visited active and abandoned a Deli

0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:55.720
<v Speaker 1>penguin colonies. They dug about a meter below ground to

0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:59.520
<v Speaker 1>excavate around one hundred and fifty six samples. One of

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>the research which, as Jamie Wood said, the dig was

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>like quote going back through time, with the team collecting

0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:09.680
<v Speaker 1>samples of penguin pooh, eggshells, feathers, cells, and DNA from

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:13.760
<v Speaker 1>other animal species. The samples generated more than ninety billion

0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 1>DNA sequences, giving experts new insights into six thousand years

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.760
<v Speaker 1>of life and changes on the remote continent.

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Wow poo new. That's the latest from the Daily OZ newsroom.

0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:30.919

0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:35.600
<v Speaker 2>over his deadly war on drugs.

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.920
<v Speaker 1>We will be back tomorrow morning with the good news

0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:41.320
<v Speaker 1>wrap up from the week that was. Who knows will

0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 1>there be more animal pooh? Until then, have a great evening.
