Cyclone Alfred has caused an estimated $1.2 billion loss to Australia's federal budget, according to Treasurer Jim Chalmers. This disaster is expected to increase budget deficits and slow economic growth, adding pressure for reforms in various sectors. In North Macedonia, a fire at a crowded nightclub has killed 59 people and injured 155 during a live concert. Authorities have detained 15 individuals for operating the venue without a proper license, as the club was reportedly over capacity. The government has declared seven days of national mourning. Many victims were young, and the incident has raised concerns about safety regulations in the country.
