Description

All United Nations Security Council members (except the US) have declared the famine in Gaza a man-made crisis.

Plus, we unpack the trial of celebrity croc wrangler Matt Wright, as the jury in Darwin prepares to start deliberating on a verdict. 

And news of Iran's alleged attacks in Melbourne and Sydney has left young people in Australia's Jewish, Iranian and Palestinian communities afraid of what could happen next. 

Also, with Sydney about to become the 7th city in the world to host a marathon major this weekend, we find what athletes actually get out of attempting the gruelling run. 

Listen now:

01:10 - The 14 countries declaring a man-made famine in Gaza

05:50 - The last day of evidence in the Matt Wright trial

14:30 - Kicking out the Iranian ambassador

19:40 - Inside the mind of a marathon runner
