The identities of eleven Australian soldiers have been confirmed this Remembrance Day, more than a century after their deaths in World War One.
One of those identified includes Defence Minister Richard Marles' great uncle, Lieutenant Andrew Anderson, who survived some of the biggest battles like Pozieres, MouquetFarm and Bullecourt before he was killed during the Battle of Menin Road, near Ypres in 1917.
The Minister has been among the many Australians to pause for a minute's silence at the eleventh hour of the eleventh month this morning, to honour those who have served their country in all wars and armed conflicts.
National RSL President Peter Tinley recited the oath at the National War Memorial Service in Canberra.
"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them."
Republicans in the US House of Representatives have avoided an effort to impeach Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The GOP have used their slim majority to vote 211 to 204 to send the impeachment resolution to a committee, avoiding any forward momentum on the process during this session of Congress.
The eight articles of impeachment against Mr Hegseth revolve around the war in Iran, the boat strikes near Venezuelan waters and other offences.
Gadi Eisenkot has unveiled plans to reverse the policies of Benjamin Netanyahu, after the swearing in of Israel's new parliament today.
The would-be prime minister and his bloc have introduced bills that propose winding back limits on judicial powers, and a proposal for a government-led inquiry into the October 7 Hamas attack, a probe that Mr Netanyahu has long resisted.
Mr Netanyahu himself has not given up his quest to stay as prime minister, repeating unfounded claims about the legitimacy of MPs joining Knesset from Arab-led parties even as he seeks to be part of a unity administration.
Mr Eisenkot is yet to strike any official deals, but says Arab party MPs will be part of the negotiations to form a coalition government.
The United Nations has urged Egyptian authorities to end what they say is the targeting and harassment of independent journalists and media outlets.
UN Human Rights Office spokesperson Thameen Al-Kheetan has cited the case of six journalists from the fact-checking outlet Matsadash who are currently detained on charges of spreading false information, and joining and financing the Muslim Brotherhood, a group the government has labelled as being terrorist.
He says these are accusations frequently used against Egyptian journalists and government critics in recent years.
Mr Al-Kheetan says growing restrictions on press freedom are preventing journalists from carrying out their work without intimidation or reprisals.
"The steps taken to suppress the continued work of both Matsadash and Mada Masr must be overturned. The people of Egypt have the right to read and hear views expressed through these fora of issues of legitimate public concern."
The number of homes available for sale has soared in almost every capital city.
New figures from property data firm Cotality show that in Brisbane and Adelaide, the total available stock was around 25 per cent above the five year average in the four weeks to November 8, while in Perth they were eight per cent above average.
The federal government's budget tax changes continue to affect investor sentiment, with figures to be released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics today expected to show a further fall in home loans taken out by investors in the September quarter.
Housing Minister Clare O'Neil has told Channel 7 that the budget reforms are working as intended.
"The amount of transactions that happen the housing markets will go up and down as house prices go up and down. What we're seeing is that more first home buyers are winning auctions that they're competing in, and so these are really good early indicators. And I'll just remind you, it's happening in a context where our government is producing already more first home buyers each year than any Australian government on record."
It's hoped a new program will improve health outcomes for First Nations families and keep children connected to culture and community.
The Federal Government is investing $100 million into Aboriginal health services to provide better care for families.
At Nunkuwarrin Yunti in South Australia, the focus is on supporting mums during pregnancy and as their babies grow.
Lead Cultural Wellbeing Worker, Hasmin Cockatoo-Collins tells NITV she hopes it's a comfortable and safe space.
"Our mothers, we want them to feel like they own this place, and they're not shy to come in or they feel comfortable here, they see mob here as well that have gone through similar experiences, they don't feel shame to ask questions, we're helping to give them knowledge and helping them to make informed decisions that can impact on their life."
To sport, two-time Australian Open winner Jannik Sinner says he is targeting the Melbourne major for his big-time comeback as he seeks to regain his world Number One status.
Sinner lost his primacy in the global rankings after 95 weeks at the summit to Alexander Zverev, having not played since winning Wimbledon in July due to a right knee injury.
Sinner says he's looking to come to Australia on his way back to the top.
But former coach Darren Cahill says he's not rushing his recovery from the knee injury that curtailed his season.
"Sometimes he doesn't have a great deal of patience, but this period he's been incredibly patient in taking all the advice from the doctors he's getting. And so we're incredibly proud of him, both for what he's going through at the moment and what he's accomplished over the last five years. So no regrets."
