War in the Middle East

A bearded man wearing glasses and amamah looks down as he reads

Who is Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran's new supreme leader?

World

A composite image divided into two main sections. On the left, a cutout of Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu shaking hands is layered over a background showing a poster of Netanyahu being burned. In the burning poster, text is partially visible, including the word "TERRORIST." On the right, a large Iranian flag flies prominently on a flagpole overlooking a dense, hazy urban cityscape with light-colored buildings stretching toward distant mountains. The two sides of the image are stylistically distinct, contrasting the political alliance of the leaders with the regional opposition and the landscape of Iran.

For the first time since 2022, Australia will dig into its petrol reserves

Published 13 March 2026 7:52pm

The Australian government will release 20% of its stock of fuel reserves to help the country's shortage, triggered as a result of panic buying. It's the first time the minimum stockpile has been tapped into since 2022, and eats into the country's one month long supply.
