Two men remain in hospital after being shot by police in north-eastern Victoria. The pair, who'd converted to Islam, have links to Outlaw¹ Motorcycle Gangs and are described as 'persons of interest' to counter terrorism authorities.

A new setback⁷ has emerged for the controversial Adani coal mine on the very day it is set to get the green light from the Queensland government. The federal court has found the Commonwealth⁸ didn't properly assess public submissions⁹ on Adani's planned use of river water for its Carmichael mine. The Australian Conservation Foundation, which launched the case says the matter must be reconsidered by the federal environment department. But that is thought unlikely to derail today's final stage in the long-running approvals process.

就在阿达尼煤矿项目即将获得昆士兰州政府批准的这一天，这个备受争议的项目遭遇了新的阻碍。联邦法庭发现，联邦并未正确评估公众就阿达尼公司卡迈克尔矿的河水使用计划提交的意见。发起这一案件的澳大利亚环境保护基金会表示，这一事件必须由联邦环境部门进行重新审议。这一项目的审批过程已持续了很长时间，外界普遍认为新的阻碍不太可能破坏今天的最后环节。
