Paramedic who suffered brain injury in brutal on-the-job attack returns to ambulance as Alice Springs hits 100 assaults in a year
Australia's Treasurer Jim Chalmers has warned of very substantial and intensifying pressure on the federal budget from global economic turmoil, particularly the US-led conflict with Iran that has curtailed Middle East oil supplies and worsened cost-of-living pressures. Inflation has risen to 4% in the year to August, prompting the RBA to hike its cash rate to 4.6%. Chalmers is preparing further budget cuts for the mid-year economic and fiscal outlook in December, following $44.9bn in savings identified in the May budget. He insists Australia is not planning for a recession despite downward pressure on global and domestic growth. And in global weekend news, authorities in the Middle East are reviewing cockpit security after a FlyDubai co-pilot allegedly used a crash axe in a terror bid on a Tel Aviv flight carrying Israeli passengers. Oil is unchanged at $91.11. Gold remains flat at $4,162. Bitcoin has moved to $84,781. And finally, two years after she was brutally attacked on the job and suffered a brain injury, Alice Springs paramedic Abbey Studley is back at work. When the ABC rode along with ambulance crews this week, the team recorded its 100th attack of the year. Condor Studio News · 10:00 PM Central · Oct 3, 2026.
