France accuses Azerbaijan of provoking fatal riots in New CaledoniaPro-Palestinian protesters have have interrupted a Labor state conference in Victoria as internal tensions simmer over the Israel-Hamas war.

Several motions related to the conflict are scheduled for debate this afternoon, including one calling for an "end to military co-operation with Israel". With Gazans facing hunger, the US military has said trucks carrying humanitarian assistance have began moving ashore via the long-awaited pier which the US Central Command, or CENTCOM said was anchored to a Gaza beach.

"At the end of the day, the basic point is, will we be able to get enough aid in to keep people alive? We've made it very clear that unless things change dramatically for the better, the answer is no and people will die."Police allege two males had an altercation in the suburb of Acacia Ridge on Friday, before the 17-year-old brought out a knife and stabbed a 19-year-old man multiple times.

While the number of violent incidents reported in the region has fallen, hundreds of Australians are believed to be trapped in the country.
