WA news LIVE: Oil tanker docks at Kwinana port
Latest posts Latest posts 9.31am Oil tanker docks at Kwinana port An international oil tanker, suspected of carrying Russian crude, docked at Kwinana port overnight after sitting off the coast for two days. The Seferis departed India earlier this month. The Greek-flagged vessel contains oil from Jamnagar refinery in India, which processes Russian crude. Ukrainian campaigners claim the ship is carrying oil that originated in Russia, which is against Australian sanctions imposed on the country in response to its invasion of Ukraine. These include restrictions on importing, purchasing and transporting oil that originated in Russia. A spokesperson for Foreign Minister Penny Wong said, regrettably, the mechanisms Australia would need to track and monitor all energy products via third countries are not in place in those countries. 'We are evaluating options to place further pressure on Russia's oil revenues,' they said. The oil is destined for petrol bowsers across the state. 9.31am Across the nation and around the world Here's what's making news across the nation and around the world: YouTube Kids will escape the federal government's teen social media ban that could serve as a model for other sites to keep offering their products, and ads, to children under the age of 16. US President Donald Trump has acknowledged sex offender Jeffrey Epstein 'stole' young women from the spa at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, including American-Australian victim Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide this year. Israel appears to have thought its renewed war on Hamas would bring quick results – but the campaign is now looking like a strategic, diplomatic and humanitarian failure as the UK moves to recognise Palestine unless Israel commits to peace. A gunman who shot dead four people at a Manhattan office building before killing himself was trying to target the headquarters of the National Football League but took the wrong elevator, Mayor Eric Adams said. 9.31am Today's weather 9.31am Welcome to our live blog Good morning readers, and welcome to our live news blog for Wednesday, July 30. Making headlines today, a 4.8 magnitude earthquake in WA's central Wheatbelt has woken residents across the state overnight. The quake was recorded at 2am in Wyalkatchem, 192 kilometres north-east of Perth. Meanwhile, Western Australia's year 9 students recorded some of the nation's best results in this year's NAPLAN tests, but year 3 students fell critically short. The Australian Curriculum and Standards Authority released the new data late on Tuesday evening, which showed nearly half of all year 3 students in WA did not meet proficiency standards in grammar and punctuation. And Deb Taylor is one of many West Australians guiding people through the state government-run website to register their firearms. For some, the task is too big.
