Sky News Australia Update — Cargo plane crash kills at least five people in Miami. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
The cargo plane has overshot the runway at Miami International Airport, forcing all runways and taxiways to close, at least for a while. Rescue crews say multiple patients are being treated after the aircraft struck multiple vehicles. The Boeing 767 operated by Amazon Prime Air overshot the runway after landing from Puerto Rico. We came to an end at the northern end of the runway. Amazon news has confirmed the crash in a post to X saying we can confirm that an Amazon airplane operated by 21 air experienced an incident whilst attempting to land at Miami International Airport today. We're working closely with local authorities and officials to understand exactly what happened right now are absolute priorities. The safety, well being in care of everyone involved. Well that's a live picture of that cargo plane right now is some damage there at the
front end of that plane for sure. One nation's Victorian leader has been accused of taking drugs by his former partner of 18 years. Warren Pickering is contesting the allegations, despite handwritten notes and texts from him, apologising for his behaviour while on the gear and using substances. Mr Pickering has regularly refused to answer questions about his alleged addiction to crystal meth, despite members of the couple's social circle claiming they witness the politicians smoking the drug at a party house. Lawyers representing the 43 year old say his former partner's testimony is unreliable. One nation is proposing to divert a quarter of superannuation into take home pay. Paul Enhancin's party is pitching the policy towards homeowners struggling to afford higher prices under the cost of living crisis. So what that would mean is that you can use that money for rent or to pay off your mortgage if one nation is successful. So three of the 12% which is allocated by employers for superannuation would be redirected into the
employees bank accounts and it would also maintain that lower tax which is reserved for superannuation rather than standard income tax. Despite warnings from experts that the system will increase inflation and leave older citizens struggling, one nation says the budget will not be impacted. The government's initiative to lure in more first home buyers is also failing. Australian Bureau of Statistics June quarter data to date shows a 2.9% decrease in first time purchases. Bank pre-approvals for first home buyers are down almost 24% in Queensland since the budget compared to last year. That's according to loan market. Treasurer Jim Charmer's last week defended the government's tax overhaul claiming the changes would allow an additional 75,000 first home buyers onto the market. But that's also off the back of 35,000 fewer properties being around. So it brings that down a bit. At least three people have died. Nine others have been rescued. After a building collapsed in New Delhi.
According to authorities, the building is a student accommodation facility. Rescue crews are working to free others trapped in the rubble of a five-story building. Authorities are working to give immediate aid to affected families. A woman's been found alive beneath the rubble in Nepal ten days after the country endured its flood disaster. The 64-year-old discovered in her collapsed home where she survived in a narrow pocket of air surrounded by mud and water. Her family had already held mourning rituals, convinced that she'd died in the disaster. She was sent to an army hospital for treatment. The death toll from the flood stands at more than 1300.
