The Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has returned to Canberra to reshuffle his cabinet, as he prepares for the 45th Parliament. He says it won't be many chanenges. Mr Turnbull will first need to hammer out a new coalition¹ agreement with the nationals. Mr Turnbull and his new frontbench won't be sworn in until the Governor General, Sir Peter Cosgrove, returns from an official visit to France.

Hundreds of protestors have been arrested across the United States, with tensions rising over the fatal shootings of police and black men. Thousands marched in the southern city of Baton² Rouge³ where a prominent 'black lives matter' activist⁴ live streamed his own arrest. Meanwhile — Dallas police say the sniper responsible for killing⁵ five officers last week, had been planning a major bomb attack.

The teens led officers from the city's west to the inner-melbourne suburb of Carlton, after spotting them in an allegedly stolen car. Police have arrested four teenagers in Melbourne after an hour-long car chase. Two police vehicles were damaged during the pursuit.

Protesters in Sydney are devastated⁶ after a 150-year old moreton bay fig⁷ known as the "Tree of Knowledge" was cut down to make way for a light rail project. Workers removed the tree in Randwick last night as about 40 protesters and angry councillors watched on.

澳大利亚总理马尔科姆·特恩布尔返回堪培拉改组内阁，为第45届国会做准备。他认为不会面临太多挑战。特恩布尔先生首先要同国家党制定出一份新的联盟协议。特恩布尔先生及新任前座议员要在澳大利亚总督彼得·科斯格罗夫结束对法国的正式访问，回到澳大利亚后才能宣誓就职。

经过长达一小时的驱车追捕后，墨尔本警方逮捕了4名青年。警方在发现这4名青年有意偷车后，从墨尔本西部地区一直追踪他们至墨尔本内郊卡尔顿。在追捕过程中，有两辆警车损坏。
