Football (OFC Women’s Champions League): Puaikura FC opened their campaign with a 0-7 loss to Auckland United, but still has a path to the semi-finals with a draw needed in their final group match. Environment & Travel Safety: DoC reports more than four tonnes of protected corals and clams seized in recent years, warning holidaymakers that CITES rules and permits are often missed. Ocean Stewardship: Pacific leaders and Indigenous groups are meeting to strengthen Indigenous-led conservation and climate resilience, including discussions tied to the Are Ariki’s 60th anniversary.
