Houthi attacks: Australia stops ship carrying 14,000 sheep heading to Israel. Australia is a major exporter of live cattle.
The government wants to ban the export of live sheep in the coming years. The ship has now returned to Australia and has been off the coast of Western Australia for around a week. But even in Australia the animals cannot go back on land for the time being. So far only a few hundred animals have been unloaded. The Australian government is ready to decide what happens next.
