Elections, conflicts, and crime - what happened around the world this year?
About this episode
While 2024 has been a big year of news in New Zealand, there’s been plenty happening around the world over the last 12 months.
From wars and conflicts to extreme-weather events -- new pandemic threats to cancer coming to Buckingham Palace -- we’ve seen it all over the last 12 months.
Today on The Front Page, we’ll be revisiting the many conversations we’ve had about the biggest stories from around the world in 2024, including the impacts of Donald Trump's re-election on New Zealand, the ongoing impacts of the wars in Gaza and Ukraine, and some of the biggest deaths and crime events from Australia.
