United States President Donald Trump says his director of national intelligence was wrong in suggesting that there is no evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon.
Israel and the U-S have justified a new campaign of strikes on Iran by claiming their geopolitical rival was just weeks or months away from developing a nuclear weapon.
Israel itself is believed to have about 90 nuclear warheads.
This claims contradicts Mr Trump's spy chief Tulsi Gabbard who stated in March that the U-S intelligence community agreed with the International Atomic Energy Agency that there has been no evidence of a nuclear weapons program in Iran.
Now the President claims his intelligence community is wrong and there is a real, imminent threat.
TRUMP: "She's wrong, my intelligence community is wrong."
REPORTER: ''20 years ago, you were skeptical of a Republican administration that attacked a Middle East country on the idea of questionable intelligence, of weapons of mass destruction. How is this moment different with Iran?''
TRUMP: 'Well, there were no weapons of mass destruction. I never thought there were. And it looks like I'm right about the material that they've gathered already. It's a tremendous amount of material."
Israel's attacks have disrupted nuclear negotiations between Iran and the U-S with Iran saying they will not return to the negotiating table while they're still under attack.
As Ukraine attempts to achieve more action from the United States to pressure Russia to end their invasion, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of acting like the ruler of Iran, calling him 'Ayatollah Putin.'
It comes as U-S support for Israel's strikes on Iran have pushed the world's biggest military power close to the brink of yet another war in the Middle East.
The comments come after President Putin said that in his view, the whole of Ukraine belonged to Russia and warned that his advancing forces could take the Ukrainian city of Sumy.
President Zelenskyy says the Russian leader has no interest in peace and his war efforts are destroying his own country.
"The Russian economy is already crumbling. We will support this process even more. Ayatollah Putin can look at his friends in Iran to see where such regimes end up, and how far into decay they drive their countries."
Sudanese refugees who have escaped the world's largest humanitarian crisis to Australia are sharing their stories to spread awareness of suffering in their homeland.
After more than two years of fighting, the conflict in Sudan has led to the biggest internal displacement crisis on the planet with more than 12 million people forcibly uprooted by fighting between the army and paramilitary forces.
Over half the 50 million population of Sudan are now experiencing crisis levels of hunger and need urgent humanitarian aid.
With World Refugee Week drawing to a close, humanitarian groups and members of the Sudanese diaspora are pleading for help from the international community.
24-year-old Majduleen Ahmed escaped the war to Sydney.
"It's not just about raising awareness, it's about resistance and survival. I remember all the horror and the heartbreak of leaving everything I've ever known behind but I also clearly and vividly remember the hope that I was given for surviving. Women are being assaulted, children are dying from hunger - starvation is completely real in Sudan. So, I would love for them to have a voice. I would love for Australian people to keep an eye on Sudan."
Australia's Yoga enthusiasts are celebrating the International Day of Yoga across the country.
Dr Bijal Ghelani, a Sydney G-P and Yoga teacher, has marked the day with an event under the Sydney Harbour Bridge at Milsons Point.
She tells SBS Gujarati that for many practitioners, Yoga is much more than a physical wellness practice.
"So the whole purpose of Yoga is not just focusing on the physical aspects. It is actually the union of mind, body and soul. And what it actually means is, when the mind is healthy and the body is healthy, then one can realise one's actual true self and serve others selflessly."
In sport,
Australian golfer Minjee Lee has overcome more brutal conditions to remain equal second at the halfway point of the Women's PGA Championship in sweltering Texas.
On another boiling hot day, Lee carved out an even-par second round of 72 to stay strong at three under for the championship.
The one-time world number two trails Thailand's now-world number two Jeeno Thitikul by three shots entering the weekend climax after the Thai superstar shot to six under with a late flurry.
And while Thitikul chases her first major, Lee offset three early bogeys with three birdies to stay firmly in the mix for a third major title of her own.
