South Australian transport authorities have introduced strict safety protocols following a serious concrete slab accident on the North-South Motorway at Bolivar. Two 15-tonne concrete slabs slid off a truck and struck three parked cars after the driver, allegedly using his phone without a seatbelt, suddenly braked. In response, deliveries for the Torrens to Darlington project are now capped at two slabs per load with upgraded restraint requirements. The premier rejects Welco’s disputed road upgrade excuse, blames the developer for leaving buyers stranded, and says a special commissioner will pursue all legal options unless the contracts are reinstated. Police are searching for an arsonist after a massive fire gutted an Edwards Town crash repair workshop, causing over $1.5 million in damage and destroying several customers' vehicles, including a prized BMW. Firefighters battled for hours to save neighbouring businesses, while investigators are treating the blaze as suspicious after a car was stolen from the site just before the fire started.

A 21-year-old woman, Isabella Nicholls, has died from critical burns after fire engulfed her Budrum unit on King Street, with neighbours forced to flee as flames quickly spread to surrounding homes and threatened a nearby petrol station. Federal Senator Pauline Hanson faces scrutiny over her parliamentary attendance record, having missed 76 sitting days since 2016, including an entire two-week sitting when she travelled to Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate. The U.S. death toll in the conflict has risen to 17 as American forces launch retaliatory strikes against Tehran-backed militant groups. Meanwhile, regional tensions continue to escalate, with Gulf nations coming under renewed attack and U.S. forces conducting ongoing military missions to protect key shipping routes

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson faces criticism after record checks revealed 76 missed parliamentary sitting days since 2016, including a two-week absence to attend Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate with Gina Rinehart. While campaigning in Perth for the Secret Harbour by-election, Hanson claimed $45 billion in budget cuts; however, these figures appear heavily overstated, as the climate change and Indigenous funding budgets total $8.7 billion and $6 billion, respectively. UK YouTuber and rapper Young Filly has gone on trial in Perth, pleading not guilty to 10 charges, including five counts of rape, after allegedly assaulting a 20-year-old fan in his hotel room following a 2024 nightclub performance. The victim testified that after taking her phone and plying her with drinks, the defendant bit, slapped, choked, and sexually assaulted her despite her pleas for him to stop. Andy Burnham is officially taking office as the UK's seventh Prime Minister in a decade following Keir Starmer's formal resignation to King Charles. After meeting with the monarch at Buckingham Palace, Burnham will deliver his first address to the nation and unveil his new cabinet team.
