The Australian far-right party One Nation has made significant gains in the polls since the end of 2026, notably following the Bondi attack, reports RFI on Thursday.
To strengthen its position, One Nation can rely on financial support from Gina Rinehart, Australia’s wealthiest woman and heiress to a mining empire. Close to figures such as Donald Trump and Elon Musk, she recently donated a building near central Brisbane to the party, where it plans to establish its headquarters.
The Wall Street Journal claims Elon Musk ordered a slowdown of Starshield, the military satellite network used by Ukraine, causing outages that disrupted drone and air defense operations.
In Pavlograd, a Ukrainian city near the front line, residents live under Russian bombardments. Despite fatigue and daily hardships, they show strong resolve not to yield to the war and Moscow's attacks.
Valentine Rugwabiza, head of Minusca, alerted the Security Council to the need to maintain sufficient peacekeepers in the Central African Republic despite progress, citing fragile security in some regions.
