Super Typhoon Fung-wong has smashed the north of the Philippines, forcing mass evacuations and killing at least two people. 

A new report from the Australian Medical Association has found that wait times for mental health care in the public hospital system remain at a record-high — for the second year in a row.

Queensland is considering changes to its biosecurity laws that would remove barriers to keeping dingoes as pets.

Pressure is mounting on the Australian delegation to COP30 to resolve an impasse with Türkiye over hosting rights for the next global climate talks in 2026.

But Australia's bid remains in doubt, as global leaders begin to question why Prime Minister Anthony Albanese won't be making the trip across the Pacific to personally vouch for Australia's case.
