Australian pub culture is shifting as cost of living pressures change drinking habits. Payment provider Tyro's analysis of hundreds of millions of transactions reveals 32% of Australians are now less likely to buy rounds for their group, with half reporting changed drinking habits due to rising costs. Pubs are seeing increased use of QR code ordering, more bill splitting, and greater demand for food over drinks, with 19% of surveyed patrons reporting spending $100 on a single round.

Iran is deploying Shaheed suicide drones, the same weapons used by Russia in Ukraine, to attack Western targets including America's consulate in Dubai. These drones cost only $10,000-$20,000 to produce, feature fibreglass construction with GPS systems and 50 kilograms of high explosive, and fly low and slow to evade radar detection. The drones, powered by simple motorbike engines, are being mass-produced and can overwhelm sophisticated defence systems like the Iron Dome by attacking in groups of five to ten, making them significantly more cost-effective than the million-dollar interceptor missiles required to stop them.

The conflict in the Middle East has escalated beyond the region, with the US sinking an Iranian warship off Sri Lanka's coast and NATO intercepting an Iranian ballistic missile targeting Turkey. Iran has now struck 11 countries in the first 72 hours of expanded hostilities, including attacks on travel hubs in the United Arab Emirates. Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong discusses the unpredictable nature of the spreading conflict, evacuation efforts for Australians in the region, and the importance of defence capabilities including the AUKUS partnership.
