Description

Australia has joined more than 150 other countries in recognising Palestine. So: what changes? 

And 3 people died after an Optus outage prevented triple 0 calls going through. Now the government is promising 'serious consequences'. 

Plus a martyr, a hero and the leader of a Christian revival: Charlie Kirk's memorial happened today, with the world's most powerful people in key roles. 

Also we wrap up Australia's performance at the World Athletics Champs.
