In this update, Russia has announced a surprise brief eastern
truce in the war with Ukraine. President Vladimir Putin has
ordered his forces to stop fighting for thirty hours, with
the ceasefire lasting until Monday. It comes after the US
threatened to pass on peace negotiations if there was no
progress on a ceasefire. Putin says he assumes the Ukrainian

(00:31):
side will follow the brief truce. His words are translated
here by the BBC. At the same time, our troops
must be ready to repel possible violations of the truth
and provocations from the enemy, any of its aggressive actions.

(01:58):
of Network Campbell Dnoon, says this already signs buyers have
been affected. Particularly first home buyer is relying on their
Keiwi saver.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
They've been a little more cautious and perhaps quite rightly
as to how much money they might actually be able
to have to provide as a deposit.

Speaker 1 (02:13):

is applauding another resilient defensive display and they're two nil
away when over Melbourne victory in the A League, the

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Defensively very strong again.

Speaker 1 (02:40):

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
