Australia Post unveils landmark addition, Qantas passengers trial major airport change, two Aussies' $4.8m lotto prizes unclaimed for years
Hello and welcome to Yahoo's live news blog this Thursday. Australia Post has opened the biggest parcel facility in Australia to keep up to speed with a boom in online shopping. There's a renewed push from lotto officials to find two unwitting Aussies who've scooped $4.8 million each on the 10-year anniversary of Set for Life's launch. One of the winners has less than two years to come forward before their prize is surrendered. Scores of Qantas passengers were the first to ditch passenger arrival cards at Sydney Airport on Wednesday as part of a trial to switch to digital declarations. It was an extension of a trial began last year at Brisbane Airport and the airline have hailed the latest step as "significant". Follow along as we bring you regular updates throughout the day. Australia Post's big step to tackle parcel boom Australia Post says millions of Australians will be receiving their parcels quicker thanks to the opening of a giant new parcel delivery centre in Sydney's west. To accomodate the huge boom in e-commerce and online shopping, Australia Post has opened a huge new parcel centre in Sydney's Blacktown that can handle close to 50,000 parcels a day during peak periods. Australia Post says the new centre will be able to handle more delivery vans than anywhere else in Australia, with capacity for nearly 400 of them. 'The new centre has been designed to create a seamless and streamlined experience for both our delivery teams and our customers. By bringing our teams closer to their delivery areas, we're able to improve turnaround times and ensure parcels reach customers' doorsteps faster," Australia Post's Khaled Elkhatib said. Travel chaos in the US There's travel chaos in the US as one of the world's biggest airlines was forced to ground its flights over a glitch with its computer system. "Due to a technology issue, we are holding United mainline flights at their departure airports," United Airlines said in a statement. "Safety is our top priority, and we'll work with our customers to get them to their destinations." More than 800 flights were cancelled because of the issue which impacted the weight and balance computer system. The system has since returned to normal operation but delays will continue. Hundreds sacked in $42m company collapse National transport and logistics company XL Express has gone into liquidation after 35 years in business. It has collapsed owing almost $42m in estimated debts, with about 200 employees to be left without jobs. The Brisbane-based trucking company was founded in 1990 and operated across Australia. The company was plunged into voluntary administration in late June and appointed administrators Kelly-Anne Trenfield, Ross Blakely and Joanne Dunn from FTI Consulting, who conducted an 'urgent assessment' into its finances. As part of the liquidation, its 200 employees were stood down and on June 23,the premises in Western Sydney were locked due to unpaid rent, the administrators said. The FTI Consulting report said the logistics company owed up to $41.9m in total debts, with $5.3m owed to employees and $3.4m to the Australian Taxation Office. XL Express also owes an estimated $18.9m to lenders including NAB, ScotPac and Judo Bank. The report said an estimated $12.4m was also owed to other unsecured creditors. Multiple injury compensation claims that are being processed by insurers were also noted by administrators. - NewsWire Council faces yet another garbage truck fire Yet another council is warning residents to correctly dispose of their batteries after a garbage truck was once again hit by fire. Queensland's Redland City Council said it has now had six garbage truck fires this year, most likely the result of batteries being thrown in kerbside bins. "Please keep batteries and hazardous items out of your bins. A small mistake could cause a major disaster," the council said. Toyota's dominance in Australia continues While it has been the top selling vehicle for the past two years, the Ford Ranger has been tipped at the top of July's sales list by rival Toyota. Both its HiLux and RAV4 models had better sales last month than the Ranger. Toyota has long been the market leader in Australia, spanning more than two decades. Last year, it sold 140,000 more vehicles than nearest manufacturer Ford. In fact it's been a difficult first half of 2025 for Ford, with Mazda jumping into second spot for overall sales. Plans for world's largest suspension bridge given green light Italy has cleared the way to build the world's largest suspension bridge linking the Italian mainland with Sicily in a massive A$25 billion infrastructure project that has been long delayed by debates over its scale, earthquake threats, environmental impact and the spectre of mafia interference. The Strait of Messina Bridge will be 'the biggest infrastructure project in the West,' Transport Minister Matteo Salvini told a news conference in Rome, after an interministerial committee with oversight of strategic public investments approved the project. 🌉 I #ponti sono sempre stati acceleratori per l'economia e lo sviluppo dei paesi. E #Webuild ha dato il suo contributo a questa storia.🇮🇹 Il Ponte sullo Stretto di Messina è una grande sfida ingegneristica per una grande opportunità di sviluppo economico, industriale,… — Webuild (@Webuild_Group) August 6, 2025 Premier Giorgia Meloni said that the bridge "will be an engineering symbol of global significance.'' Salvini cited studies showing the project will create 120,000 jobs a year and accelerate growth in economically lagging southern Italy, as billions more in investments are made in roads and other infrastructure projects accompanying the bridge. Preliminary work could begin between late September and early October, once Italy's court of audit signs off, with construction expected to start next year. Despite bureaucratic delays, the bridge is expected to be completed between 2032-2033, Salvini said. Read more here. China sees Albanese as 'weak', Coalition says The Coalition says China and Russia are "testing" Prime Minister Anthony Albanese as they see him as a weak leader when it comes to defence. China and Russia are currently carrying out joint patrols in the Western Pacific, right on Australia's doorstep. Beijing's mouthpieces have framed the patrols as 'jointly countering security threats' and a testament to 'deepening of China-Russia military ties'. Opposition Defence spokesman Andrew Hastie suggests the patrols should prompt more resistance from the government. 'While concerning, this is not surprising. They are testing us because they see weakness in Prime Minister Albanese," he told NewsWire. 'The Prime Minister has set a dangerous precedent by repeatedly refusing to stand up for our Australian Defence Force. 'Australia must show strength, and we're not seeing it from Labor.'

Renewed appeal to find lotto winners as prizes go unclaimed for years The Lott is celebrating 10 years of its Set for Life game – and the lottery authority is reminding Australians there are two winners who are yet to claim their $4.8m prize. "Two Aussies remain oblivious to their good fortune, with two Set for Life division one prizes unclaimed, each worth $4.8 million. In New South Wales and the ACT, players have six years from the date of the draw to claim their prize," The Lott said on Thursday. One of the tickets was purchased at Thistle Kiosk in Canberra's Woden in April 2021 while the other was bought at Nextra Kiama in NSW's Kiama in November 2024. Set for Life differs from traditional lottery games by drip-feeding winners their prize. Winners are paid $20,000 a month for 20 years. Qantas trial makes it to Australia's busiest airport It's a trial we're sure most Aussie flyers will embrace, and it's now made it's way to the country's busiest airport. Qantas customers flying in from New Zealand's Queenstown or Auckland on Wednesday were able to complete a digital declaration through the airline's app before their flight instead of filling out an arrivals card. The trial has been running at Brisbane Airport since last year and has been warmly welcomed by the aviation industry and passengers.
