Australia’s young indigenous community has come together to honour Cassius Turvey

*A warning the following story contains information about a deceased person, Cassius Turvey.

The 15-year-old schoolboy died after he was allegedly bashed when walking home from school.

It’s sparked an outpouring of grief around the country, as Indigenous leaders fear for their own loved ones.

The 21-year-old alleged perpetrator has been charged with murder and is facing two more charges relating to aggravated assault and stealing.

I can’t sleep thinking about Cassius Turvey and his short life being taken away by a racially motivated attack, this is not the days of Marshall law folks where Aboriginal people were shot for stealing sheep, this is 2022 FFS! I can’t imaging what his family are going through ♥️ pic.twitter.com/zro1Ruh6o1

Cassius Turvey never made it home from school.

Just 15 years old, he was allegedly targeted by someone who shouted racial slurs, told him to run, and then brutally beat him with a metal pole.

He died days later. This is the ongoing reality of racist violence in Australia. pic.twitter.com/7SOxOjSo39

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.

President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
