Speaker 1 (00:03):
Well, good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Let's get straight to that breaking news in London and
tennis world number one Yanick Sinner has won his maiden
Wimbledon titles in a battle from behind, defeating Carlos Alcaraz
in four sets and denying the Spaniard a third consecutive
title there at Wimbledon.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
When I was younger, this was only a dream off
the dream because it was so far away where I'm from,
so it's all I'm just leaving them my dreams. So
it's amazing.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
It's the Italian's fourth major championship. And we'll have more
of those royal pictures of a royal day out at
Wimbledon coming up.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Very soon on the Sunrise Early News.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Back home and to breaking news in city's west, police
are hunting an arsonist after a childcare center at Castle
Hill was targeted by firebugs. The fire broke out at
the Plate to Learn Center at Excelsia Avenue around one thirty.
Fire crews were able to bring it under control within minutes,
with only minor damage caused to the building. It follows
a similar attack against another play to Learn center last week.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Nobody was injured in the attack.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Meantime, police in city's west are also searching for another
arsonist after a number of blazers broke out around to
Gabby overnight. The fires are mostly lit around piles of rubbish,
our cameramen helping to tackle the flames at one point
with a hose. The fires were lit at Arelia Street,
toing Gabby Road and Claudia Road.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
In On with information is being urged to contact police.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
This morning, Police in Melbourne a hunting a gunman after
a man was shot before crashing his car. A white
Toyota coupe went through a fence and crashed into a
tree in Roxburgh Park around seven last night.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
The driver suffered life.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Threatening injuries, including a gunshot wound, but it's unclear how
or when he was shot. An investigation remains ongoing, with
police suspecting a targeted attack. The CFMAU is once again
under fire, this time in Queensland, where an urgent inquiry
will get underway to expose claims of intimidation, abuse and
(02:01):
a reported toxic culture. The inquiry will cost millions of dollars,
with the Premieer seys it's necessary.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
This is a very small investment into making sure that
women can feel safe on work sites.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
The productivity can return.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
The inquiry follows a bombshell report finding serious threats and
aggressive behavior throughout the Queensland branch FROMNIST. Anthony Albernizi has
arrived in Shanghai, where he steered clear of questions on
tensions over Taiwan. A National Security editor, Tim Lester is
traveling with the PM in Shanghai and Tim he has
a busy day.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Head today Anthony Alberzi plans two business events here in Shanghai.
The first is a round table to discuss steel decarbonization. Australia,
of course, is far and away the biggest exporter of
iron ore into the Chinese market, accounts for about sixty
(02:54):
percent of the iron ore the China buys to make
it steel. So mister OURB and Easy is invited key
iron ore companies from Australia BHP, Rio, Tinto, Fortescue and
others sending senior executives here, as well as the steel
makers here in China meeting for the morning roundtable to
(03:15):
discuss the steel decarbonization process. Steel and its processes lead
to about nine percent of the carbon emissions on Earth,
so a big deal could be gained if steel decarbonization
can really be put into full practice. Mister ALBINIZI will
then have a second event that is bringing together about
(03:36):
two hundred business leaders from around Shanghai at a hotel
here in where he'll address them around lunchtime. He then,
of course makes the trip to Beijing, and a complete
change in his six day China trip occurs there because
it's in Beijing that he will hold the high level
leaders meetings, including meeting President shij P Tim.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Almost eight months on from the Laos methanol poisoning tragedy,
one survivor is warning others to avoid the region. British
backpacker Bethany Clark, who now lives in Brisbane, has told
media people should consider.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Whether it's worth the risk.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
She's also campaigning for posters at international airports to help
travelers make informed choices. Six people died in November last year,
including Bianca Jones and Holly Bowls, both from Melbourne. Police
investigating a stabbing at a shopping center west of Brisbane
have charged a man over the attack. Officers say a
fight between two men led to a fifty seven year
(04:37):
old man being stabbed in the stomach at Springfield Central
in Ipswich. He suffered minor injuries and was taken to hospital.
A twenty three year old man has been charged with
unlawful wounding and will face court in Ipswich Today, cheap
devices used to break through the security in our cars
are behind a four hundred percent surge in thefts. Victoria
(05:00):
police are sounding the alarm on the devices called onboard
diagnostic units, they used to reprogram and override security systems,
letting thieves start up the car within minutes, please say.
Across the past two months, the top eight car makers
had increases in thefts of between forty seven and four
hundred percent. Australia is prepared for Chinese spies off our
(05:22):
coast as troops take part in the biggest military exercise
on home soil. Allies from around the world have been
deployed for Talisman Saber and military rivals are watching on.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
It's the biggest gathering of international ground forces in Australia
since the Second World War. Forty thousand personnel from nineteen
countries training to operate as one unified force.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
We're going to operate together, integrate together, cooperate, collaborates.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
As black Hawks buzz the Harbor Bridge exercise Talisman's Saber
was officially launched from the decks of Usustralia's biggest ship,
HIMAUS Adelaide.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
It's been about seven hundred days of planning.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
In its twentieth year. Talisman includes forces from Australia, the US, UK, Germany, Japan, Indonesia,
South Korea. It's been called the military Olympics with an
insistence it's about prevention, not provocation.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
It's effectively a deterrent mechanism because our ultimate goal is
no war.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
It started today the first ever live fire of Australia's
new Hi Mars rockets, also revealing they'll be testing these
submarine drones, a game changer for naval warfare.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
We are doing several innovative experimental things here.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Talisman Saber is the biggest, most complex, most important military exercise.
Australia is involved in. Nineteen nations coming together to send
a loud, clear message to one China, with Chinese spy
ships predicted to shadow.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
It's fully expected, it's catered for in the player.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
That they appear to be running late.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
There is no sign yet.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Chris Reason seven News.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
And on seven News at six tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Chief report of Chris Reason will have a special report
from inside that operation for Princess Cajun. Prince William spent
the day with their children at Wimbledon, taking Prince George
and Princess Charlotte to watch the men's singles finals. That's
going light to Jacqueline Robson in London, Jackie. They joined
a sea of stars court side today to see Yannick
Sinner take out his first Wimbledon.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Absolutely Eddie and what an incredible match right in front
of the royal family. And it was a surprise to
see some of the youngest royals in attendance, Princess Charlotte
and Prince George joining their parents courtside. The Prince and
Princess of Wales there speaking with the winners of the
men's doubles before making their way to the Royal box,
(07:50):
and it was an incredibly warm day in London. We
know that young Prince, sorry Princess Charlotte is quite a
tennis fan and during the match she was speaking with
her mom and pointing to the play. Quite involved in
this thrilling final between Italian Yannick Sinner up against defending
champ Carlos al Karaz but of course the Italian got
(08:13):
one over al Koraz for the first time that incredible
four set match five and a half hours in that
blistering heat. There was a funny moment during the match too,
where a cork from a champagne bottle actually went onto
the court. They had to pause it momentarily and warn
members of the crowd to keep quiet as the play
(08:35):
was unfolding. But there were a number of big celebs
as well in the Royal Box, including some of our
own Nicole Kidman Beck and Leyton Hewitt, as well as
other big celebrities Kieran Knightley and Matthew mcconaugh. Hay So
an action packed event both on and off the court,
and this rivalry between the two athletes really heating up.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Eddie.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
It's very Wimbledon, isn't it when your champagne cork ends
up on the court.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
