His latest legal troubles began when he stole the identity of a gun licence holder.

Paper roads cover 6924ha in Northland, or 3.7% of public land in the region.

Nathan Teraki was jailed in Australia after the fatal crash in 2022.

Replacement ferries are not expected to arrive on the Cook Strait until 2029.

Trump had threatened to target the island if Iran continued to block the Strait of Hormuz.

Police have warned that a popular game can be treated like a real threat after a TAFE campus was put into lockdown after a girl was spotted walking around with a water pistol.

The message comes as emergency services were called to Campbelltown TAFE on Tuesday when a 16-year-old girl walked through the campus with a water pistol mistaken for a gun.

What many feared was a shooter on the loose turned out to be a teenager playing a viral TikTok game known as "Senior Assassin".

Police addressed the concern of the game in a social media post, saying that it can be treated as a "real threat".

"From a distance, these items can look very real.

"If someone reports a firearm to police, then we treat it as a genuine threat, and we respond accordingly," a NSW police officer said in the post.

"In that moment, we don't know it's just a game.

"A bit of fun can very quickly become a very serious situation."

Senior Assassin gained popularity in the 2010s thanks to it featuring on shows like Gossip Girl and iCarly.

But it has enjoyed a resurgence in recent years.

The rules of the game vary from place to place, but it essentially is based on a player squirting their "target" with a water pistol when they don't expect it.

The US has attacked a piece of vital infrastructure in Iran that has so far been untouched by the war.

Donald Trump announced this morning that he had "executed one of the most powerful bombing raids in the history of the Middle East" on Kharg Island.

In a Truth Social post, the US president said he had destroyed every military target on what he described as "Iran's crown jewel".

"For reasons of decency, I have chosen NOT to wipe out the Oil Infrastructure on the Island," he said.

"However, should Iran, or anyone else, do anything to interfere with the Free and Safe Passage of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz, I will immediately reconsider this decision."

There is no word on casualties from the strike on the tiny island, which has a population of around 8000.

Because access to the island is restricted, it has a nickname locally as Forbidden Island.

Because Iran's coastline is too shallow for massive tankers, 90 per cent of Iran's oil is exported via Kharg Island.

Oil is transported from the mainland to the island for supertankers to take out of the country. The terminal is able to load ten supertankers at once.

A military strike on oil infrastructure there would be devastating to the regime's economy.

Trump also bragged of US military capabilities in his Truth Social post.

"Iran has NO ability to defend anything that we want to attack — There is nothing they can do about it! 

"Iran will NEVER have a nuclear weapon, nor will it have the ability to threaten the United States of America, the Middle East or, for that matter, the World!"

He urged Iran's military to lay down their arms.

Earlier today it was reported that thousands of ground troops are being deployed by the US military to the Middle East.

The Wall Street Journal reports the Pentagon has approved moving an additional 5000 Marines and sailors into the region.

The request for more troops was made by US Central Command and approved by Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth.

The troops of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit are attached to the USS Tripoli, an amphibious assault ship usually based in Japan.

Neither the Pentagon or the White House have confirmed whether the transfer of the ship to the region is coming ahead of a ground invasion of Iran.

But in order for the US to have substantial numbers of troops on the ground from an amphibious invasion, they would need a vessel like this.

The 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit specialises in amphibious invasions.

Already there are 50,000 US troops in the region, but Donald Trump has demurred on whether he will order a ground invasion of Iran.

A Queensland man is behind bars this morning, accused of making antisemitic threats on social media while stockpiling illegal weapons.

Australian Federal Police (AFP) officers began an investigation into a string of online antisemitic comments posted on Telegram last year.

A home in Longreach in Queensland was later raided, with police allegedly seizing knives and batons after tracing a series of Telegram posts directed at the Jewish community back to the 56-year-old.

In total, police seized two flick knives, an extendable baton and electronic devices for forensic examination.

The Queensland man will face court today after being charged with one count of using a phone to harass and one count of possessing illegal weapons. 

AFP Detective Superintendent Bill Freeman said it will not tolerate any threats toward the Jewish community.

"The AFP is committed to identifying and charging individuals suspected of harassing, menacing or threatening the Jewish community."

A photograph of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein has surfaced in what is believed to be the first known image of the three men together.

The image released by the Department of Justice (DoJ) shows the former prince and ex-British ambassador to the US wearing bathrobes, sitting alongside the convicted pedophile.

The three men are captured sitting around a wooden table on a deck, drinking out of mugs displaying the US flag.

The photo was found by ITV News, and they understand it was captured in Martha's Vineyard in Boston, Massachusetts.

It is unknown when the image was taken.

The surfacing of the photo comes as documents released on Wednesday by the British government show officials believed there was a "reputational risk" to appointing Peter Mandelson as the ambassador to the US because of his relationship with the convicted sex offender.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer appointed Mandelson to the position before firing him nine months later when new details of the relationship with Epstein emerged.

Starmer now faces a political storm over the decision.

Darren Jones, chief secretary to the prime minister, said the due diligence on Mandelson "did not expose the depth and extent" of his friendship with Epstein, and said Mandelson lied to Starmer about the friendship.

"Peter Mandelson should never have been afforded the privilege of representing this country," Jones told lawmakers in the House of Commons.

"I reiterate for the House that the prime minister deeply regrets taking him at his word. It was a mistake to do so."

Both men deny any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, after separately being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
